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.
Golden Ring Co-op is a sprawling delight on the East side of Baltimore County. This 3-story, 154 unit senior community is laid out with four wings of comfortable and spacious units for independent seniors aged 62 and older. Golden Ring Co-op is nationally recognized as A Community of Quality by the National Affordable Housing Management Association. The property was completed in 1993.
Resident members embody the spirit of cooperation by living independently and volunteering together. The community room, complete with flat screen TV and professional bingo board, is adjacent to the game room which has a pool table and shuffleboard table. Members enjoy the recreational activities inside the co-op as well as outside the co-op as the Travel committee's excursions to places near and far provide a great source of entertainment.
Golden Ring is conveniently located off of Pulaski Highway, a major Baltimore County artery. It has suburban comfort but is merely minutes away from the Baltimore Beltway, I-95 and Baltimore City.
Golden Ring is affordable for everyone. The co-op even accepts housing vouchers from members who have them. So don't delay! Your new home awaits!
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 Golden Ring Co-op 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. Since the property also utilizes a FHA insured private mortgage, the property is subject to Federal physical condition requirements and REAC inspections. 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.
