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.
Kaiwahine Village, an affordable LEED for Homes community, will be located at the mauka end of Kaiwahine Street and the Hale Pi’ilani subdivision. The 120 unit community consists of 64 two bedroom units and 56 three bedroom units for families with incomes at 60% or less of the average median income of the County of Maui. On-site amenities include a community center with services and on-site management, tot lots, picnic areas, laundry facilities and ample on-site parking. Units will have energy star appliances, hard surface flooring, solar water heating, water wise plumbing fixtures and ceiling fans throughout.
Because Kaiwahine Village 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.
