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.
The result of a visionary partnership between MidPen Housing and the City of Sunnyvale, Onizuka Crossing provides 58 low-income working families with new, affordable rental homes in the heart of the Silicon Valley. Onizuka Crossing began construction in late 2014 and welcomed residents in spring 2016. Twenty-nine units are reserved for formerly homeless individuals and their families, and those residents receive extensive supportive services in collaboration with the Santa Clara County Department of Behavioral Health and the VA Palo Alto Healthcare System HUD-VASH Program. Onizuka Crossing was named in honor of Ellison Onizuka, NASA astronaut and Lieutenant Colonel with the United States Air Force, and is a nod to the former Onizuka Air Force Station in Sunnyvale. Onizuka Crossing is a prime example of infill development, transforming a National Guard armory building into supportive, permanent affordable housing.
Because Onizuka Crossing 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.

"Affordable Housing Online is a very helpful website. I was able to put it in a Section 8 application, and received a letter that I was chosen to be on a waiting list!"
