Since this property may have a Section 8 Property Based Rental Assistance contract with rental assistance available to its residents, it is likely the property has a waiting list. Sometimes these waiting lists can be months or years long and may or may not be accepting new applicants. 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.
MidPen Housing Corp. built Redwood Court, Redwood City's first subsidized family housing development, in 1983, and rehabilitated it in 2004. Four years after it was built, Redwood Court and MidPen Housing were recognized by the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors and the County Housing Task Force for outstanding achievement in family rental housing development and presented with the 1987 Affordable Housing Award. The community consists of both affordable garden apartments and townhomes in an attractive residential setting. All units offer private balconies and patios, and the buildings have been refurbished with new siding. Amenities also include laundry facilities and a tot lot.
Since Redwood Court participates in the Section 8 Project-Based Rental Assistance program, your rent would be subsidized. You would not pay more than 30% of your income for rent. To qualify, you must earn 50% or less of the Area Median Income (AMI), which you can find on this page’s income chart. Also, project-based Section 8 properties tend to have longer waiting lists, with some with waiting lists going out for years. Since this property participates in the Section 8 Project Based Rental Assistance program and has a property based subsidy, if you have a Section 8 voucher, you would have to give up your voucher to move in.

Know your rights as a Section 8 tenant.
In many areas, private landlords with an available unit can refuse interested tenants who have a Section 8 voucher. Check your local laws.Mary Estrada says:
