Originally built in 1959, Garland Plaza was acquired by MidPen Housing in 2007 preserve the affordability of the community. With support from the City of Sunnyvale, Garland Plaza underwent an extensive rehabilitation in 2012 and welcomed residents back in the spring of 2013. The rehabilitation included both interior and exterior renovations which completely transformed the property and made it more environmentally-friendly. Garland Plaza is located near to bus lines, shopping, and a health care center.
Because Garland Plaza participates in HUD's HOME program for rental housing and the LIHTC program, at least some of the units in this property are set aside for households earning 60% or less of the AMI and rents are capped at the local FMR and in many cases much lower. For a HOME project of this size, some of the units are set aside for households at or below 50% AMI with a corresponding lower rent cap. As this property appears not to have a project-based subsidy or any other Federal assistance, you likely will have to pay your own rent, albeit, at a lower rent amount thanks to the HOME and LIHTC programs. Since this property participates in the HOME and LIHTC programs, the property is required to accept Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers.
