Can a landlord refuse Section 8 in Indiana?

Yes. Indiana law blocks local governments from requiring voucher acceptance, so landlords in Indiana can legally decline Section 8 applicants. Listing on a voucher-friendly marketplace is the fastest way to find the landlords who do accept.

Indiana preempts local SOI protections. No statewide law. Landlords can refuse vouchers.

Informational only, not legal advice. Laws change, so verify current status before acting on a rejection or making a leasing decision.
