Financial Support and Places to Live
Different Options for Different Needs
HASCO provides housing services to people in over 5,000 households throughout Snohomish County.
We serve working people and their families, people with disabilities, seniors on fixed incomes, veterans and people actively participating in social services programs.
We work to support our clients’ life goals: to have a place to call home and enough income to cover basic needs after the rent is paid—the foundation for making forward progress in life.
HASCO Rent Programs
HASCO provides partial rent support through federal (U.S. Government) housing programs. Each program addresses a different set of circumstances and needs.
Program participants pay no more than 30-40% of household income for rent. They may also receive assistance with utilities.
There is a housing shortage in Snohomish County and rents are at historic highs. Many people are unable to afford rent without sacrificing basic needs, such as food and medical care. Some cannot afford a place to live.
While HASCO is the access place for U.S. Government rent assistance, the amount of housing support available is not enough to cover every household that qualifies. We maintain a waiting list for each program so the funding available for our area is distributed fairly and each applicant is treated equitably.

HASCO Properties
HASCO offers housing in places we own so more Snohomish County renters can experience stability and live in the communities where they work, have family, friends and support.
We purchase and build properties to address specific housing needs, often in partnership with local municipalities concerned about developments that displace residents and disrupt neighborhood character.
Rent Support Properties
Half our properties are available only to individuals and families who qualify for help with rent, including senior citizens and people with disabilities.
Rentals at HASCO Communities properties offer lower-than-average rent to people earning modest incomes, up to a published maximum. People with restaurant and retail jobs, for example, often qualify for these rental homes.
Conventional Properties
HASCO owns three manufactured housing communities where the homes are occupant owned. Homeowners pay lot rental and management fees to HASCO, the typical arrangement for this type of housing.
We also own over 1,300 Fair Market apartment units for people who can afford to pay full rent.
