This property is currently under construction.

This property began construction in late Fall of 2019. It is expected to be ready for occupancy in the Spring of 2021.

The West End Apartments is an opportunity to jumpstart a new urban village in South Portland's West End Neighborhood. The project was in response to the City of South Portland's recent West End master planning effort. The location is just minutes from major employment centers like downtown Portland, the Maine Mall, and the Portland Jetport with easy access to public transportation and Interstate 295. The project also provides excellent proximity to a number of amenities including grocery stores, playground, the Portland Trail Network, pharmacies, and a variety of other retail options.

Once completed the West End Apartments will consist of 64 family apartments ranging in size from studios to three (3)-bedroom units. Apartments will be made available to both market rate renters and as income restricted units. Residents will have access to a large community room, an outdoor plaza, on-site laundry, and indoor bike storage. The ground floor will be home to a convenience store, restaurant, and the Opportunity Alliance's "The Hub".

Dave's Thoughts On West End 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 West End 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.
