Still public housing: 2026 RAD rents
HUD's rents tool sets a 2026 RAD contract rent for each unconverted project from its 2024 public housing funding, inflated by the 2025 and 2026 OCAF. Across WV001's remaining units that averages $998 a month, against a weighted PBV cap of $1,057 (110% of fair market rent, before the utility allowance). Where the RAD rent is below the cap, a Section 18 blend can raise the rent and the debt it carries. 4 of WV001's 14 projects are already at or above the PBV cap.
