Since this property is a LIHTC property that might not have a project based rental assistance contract, it is likely that it either has no waiting list or the waiting list is shorter than properties with rental assistance. You should contact the property to verify.
Note: Affordable Housing Online has not confirmed the waiting list status directly with the property. This waiting list status forecast is based on our housing experts' knowledge of similar properties. You should always confirm this status directly with the property.
Homesafe consists of 24 units of co-housing for survivors of domestic violence, a childcare facility and a resident manager’s unit. The units are affordable to very low-income households. In Santa Clara County, the co-housing model has been shown to be conducive in giving women and their children both the privacy and the community they need to regain control of their lives when transitioning out of an unhealthy living environment. These units offer families an affordable living situation, informal community support, childcare and centralized access to services specifically for battered women and their children. This project is a collaborative effort between Charities Housing (developer), InnVision the Way Home (operator), and Next Door Solutions to Domestic Violence (service provider).
Because Homesafe Santa Clara participates in HUD's HOME program for rental housing and the LIHTC program, at least some of the units in this property are set aside for households earning 60% or less of the AMI and rents are capped at the local FMR and in many cases much lower. Depending on the number of HOME-designated units, additional units may have even lower household income requirements and corresponding lower rent caps.
