Getting a Rental Certified for Section 8 in Detroit

Hello BP Community, 
Can someone share their experience or guidance on how to get a rental property certified for Section 8 in Detroit? 
I have a rental property in Detroit that I am looking to get certified, and have tried following the process on the Detroit Housing Commission website (https://www.dhcmi.org/landlord-faqs), which says " To list your property with the Detroit Housing Commission (DHC), you can visit DHC’s Assisted Housing Division office located at 2211 Orleans, Detroit, Michigan 48207. There, we can provide you with the necessary information in order to list your property."

I am not based in Detroit and can not physically go the office. I have called the office number dozens of times, but it always seems to be busy. Nor have I been able to find an online application that I can fill out. 

I would really appreciate your tips and guidance on how to get the property listed! Thanks!
