Waitlist Forecast

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.

Hayward Senior Housing is a 60-unit development of affordable senior rental housing at the northern end of the Cannery neighborhood in downtown Hayward and represents the inclusionary fulfillment of the master development sponsored by Citation Homes. The development is comprised of a three story building at the intersection of Grand and C Streets. Design of Hayward Senior Housing has been developed to provide an active senior residential facility that blends with the existing adjacent residential neighborhood while creating an architecturally harmonious transition to the adjacent commercial district. Recycled brick from Cannery buildings and stucco provide a distinctive historical accent to the building façade and the palate of earth-tone colors has been selected to enhance the development’s compatibility with the adjacent buildings.

The development incorporates two multipurpose rooms, one of which opens onto an outdoor patio and formal garden with seating; library; lounge; central laundry; and tenant storage. Each of the senior apartment units targeting very low income seniors provide one bedroom, a kitchen, a living area and full bathroom.

Hayward Senior is conveniently located directly across the street from the Downtown Hayward BART station, near the 880 freeway, and is on a local transit bus route. This affordable community is located near grocery shopping, restaurants, parks, and City Hall. Tennyson High School and Chaves Elementary School are nearby.

Dave's Thoughts On Hayward Senior

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 Hayward Senior 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. As a LIHTC property that chose the 40/60 election, this property has agreed to set aside at least 40% of its units for families and individuals earning 60% of Area Median Income (AMI). Many properties have actually set aside more units than required by law, and in many cases all of the units at these properties are affordable to renters with lower incomes. Since this property participates in the LIHTC program, the property is required to accept Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers.
