The Foundation will be new affordable housing for working families, vulnerable seniors, and those with special needs at the corner of East 13th Street and Park Avenue in the City of Chico. The four-story residential building will feature common space that includes a community kitchen, a computer lab, and multipurpose rooms for onsite resident services. To promote healthy living and encourage interaction among residents, a central courtyard will feature outdoor barbecues, seating and recreation areas, a community garden, and a small pet park.
This LIHTC property is among the most common types of affordable rental housing in the United States. The LIHTC program only provides subsidies to the building’s owner at construction. No subsidies are provided directly to the residents, but the owner must set rents affordable to low-income renters in the area. Our data suggests The Foundation does not participate in any project-based rent subsidy program. This means you must earn enough to pay the full rent or have your own Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher. For that reason, LIHTC properties tend to have shorter waiting lists or even none at all. LIHTC properties nationwide are required to accept housing vouchers. LIHTC properties were first built in the late 1980's. Because they tend to be newer, these properties are more likely to have larger units, more amenities, and greater tenant service offerings than other affordable housing programs. This property might be right for you if you have a housing voucher or enough income to pay rent, are looking for a high quality property, or need immediate availability. Since this property participates in the LIHTC program, the property is required to accept Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers.
