Ping Yuen, consisting of three buildings with 234 units, is one of four properties that Chinatown CDC was selected to transform, own and operate. Chinatown CDC developed a plan to improve these nearly 70 year old buildings, improving the units, the systems, and safety and security while also adding a much-needed community center for resident events and community activities. Improvements began in late 2016 and will be complete by the beginning of 2019.

Dave's Thoughts On Ping Yuen

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 Ping Yuen 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.
