Sereno Village is a transit-oriented affordable development project on a five-acre site near the former Mare Island shipyard in northern Vallejo. The 125-unit affordable community is comprised of one-, two-, three-, and four-bedroom units for low-income families. Sereno Village also includes a day care center, over 5,000 square feet of community space, a computer learning center, and a meeting area for residents.

The community incorporates a new bus transit station that serves every transit line in Vallejo and links residents to jobs, social services, retail shops, and recreation facilities. Sereno Village is conveniently located one block away from Sonoma Blvd (29) and one mile away from Highway 37, and is less than three miles away from Marine World. The property is within walking distance to grocery stores and restaurants and is only two blocks away from Kaiser Hospital. Johnston Cooper Elementary School and Vallejo High School are within two miles of Sereno Village.

Dave's Thoughts On Sereno Village 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 Sereno Village 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.
