Since this property may have a Section 8 Property Based Rental Assistance contract with rental assistance available to its residents, it is likely the property has a waiting list. Sometimes these waiting lists can be months or years long and may or may not be accepting new applicants. 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.
Sherway Tower offers you all you would expect in apartment living and more. A place to call home for anyone 62 and older or those under the age of 62 who require the features included in an accessible apartment. Your rent is based on your income and occupancy is subject to HUD rules and regulations, including the HUD annual income limits.
Sherway Towers is composed of studio, handicapped accessible one, standard one and two bedroom apartment homes. The property also has on-site laundry facilities and a recreational room. The property location offers easy access to shopping areas and public transportation. Broadway, Montrose and Sheridan Road buses are nearby with scheduled stops in the loop and at the Rapid Transit (elevated) stations. There is site parking available for residents and visitors. Individual thermostatically controlled air conditioning units are installed in each living room. A recreational garden area is also available for residents to relax and take in the fresh air. Sherway has a full-time service coordinator to assist residents with their needs.
Since Sherway Towers Apartments participates in the Section 8 Project-Based Rental Assistance program, your rent would be subsidized. You would not pay more than 30% of your income for rent. To qualify, you must earn 50% or less of the Area Median Income (AMI), which you can find on this page’s income chart. Also, project-based Section 8 properties tend to have longer waiting lists, with some with waiting lists going out for years. Since this property participates in the Section 8 Project Based Rental Assistance program and has a property based subsidy, if you have a Section 8 voucher, you would have to give up your voucher to move in.

Even if it looks difficult to get housing, apply anyway.
Some factors make it look like a longshot to get housing. Any waiting list opening is a legitimate chance to get housing, no mattter how long it takes.Kathy Bleser says:
"I was prepared to relocate for a Section 8 voucher, but this website alerted me to a waiting list opening in my own city. Within six months, I had a voucher! Thank you Affordable Housing Online!"
