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.
Welcome to Rankin School Place, an attractive, affordable community for seniors located in an ideal setting in northeast Greensboro. Situated in a quiet neighborhood, it enjoys close proximity to shopping, banking, services, restaurants, churches and major highways. The traditional craftsman architecture and single story footprint was designed with safety, convenience, comfort and affordability in mind.
The development offers 48 one-bedroom and 8 two-bedroom well-constructed dwellings. The two-bedroom units provide double master bedrooms each with their own bathroom. All buildings are age friendly offering ground-level, non-ambulatory access and a variety of security features. Each apartment possesses its own heating and air conditioning system and personal patio space with storage. Kitchens are fully equipped with range, refrigerator, dishwasher and washer/dryer connections.
The community building has a spacious and beautifully decorated activity room with a resident computer center, an on-site management office, as well as a communal laundry. Outdoor seating, raised garden spots, and generous landscaping compliment the property's exterior.
If you are age 55 or older, you can make Rankin School Place your home. Rentals are determined by income and other qualification factors.
Because Rankin School Place 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.
