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.

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.

In June 2008, Las Palmas, in partnership with MCA Housing Partners (formerly Simpson Housing Solutions), completed construction of a 42-unit affordable family apartment complex in San Diego, California. The community is affordable to families earning between 30 % – 50% of the area median income.

Gateway Apartments is located on Logan Avenue and 16th Street, adjacent to the East Village section of the Centre City Redevelopment Project Area, and contributes to the ongoing revitalization of the Barrio Logan neighborhood. To help preserve the area’s appearance and culture, local artists were recruited to design murals and create ceramic tile art.

The two and three bedroom units feature interior entrances, plush carpeting, built-in kitchen appliances, cable TV hook-ups and free high-speed internet service. The complex also includes a community building with a clubhouse and multi-purpose room for social service programs, full-service kitchen, a children’s play area, a media center with large screen TV, video and DVD, a computer learning center with computer, fax and business services for residents.

Gateway is located near public transit, schools, childcare, shopping and recreational facilities. It is only four miles from the world-renowned San Diego Zoo and less than one mile from San Diego’s famous PETCO Park, home of the San Diego Padres.

Dave's Thoughts On Gateway I Family Apartments

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 Gateway I Family Apartments 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.
