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.
Liberty Avenue Apartments, located in a mixed residential and commercial area of East New York, is a joint-venture development with Cypress Hills Local Development Corporation, Inc., a group with longstanding ties to the surrounding community. The site was assembled with a mixture of private and City-owned land. Apartments provide affordable rental housing for working families at 30% and 60% of area median income, and seven units have been set aside for independent living for adults with developmental disabilities, with services provided both on and off-site. The building is designed to achieve Energy Star certification and incorporates many of the high-performance and energy-efficient details used in prior Dunn Development projects.
Managed by Dunn Development Corp.
Because Liberty Avenue Apartments 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. For a HOME project of this size, some of the units are set aside for households at or below 50% AMI with a corresponding lower rent cap. As this property appears not to have a project-based subsidy or any other Federal assistance, you likely will have to pay your own rent, albeit, at a lower rent amount thanks to the HOME and LIHTC programs. Since this property participates in the HOME and LIHTC programs, the property is required to accept Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers.
