Housing Choice Voucher Referral Program

Helping Friends Become Neighbors

Refer another Housing Choice Voucher holder to rent with Progress! You’ll help make their search for the perfect home easier than ever, plus we’ll email you a $250 gift card to be redeemed at tangocard.com as a thank-you.

 

How it Works

  1. Share with friends and family why Progress homes are perfect for Housing Choice Voucher holders.
  2. Your referral can browse* eligible homes (only eligible in Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas and Phoenix)**
  3. They’ll list your name and address in the referral section when applying for their home. 
  4. Once they’re approved and move in, you’ll receive a $250 Tango gift card!
