Waitlist Forecast

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.

The Renwood Apartment community (24 apartment homes) is spread throughout the areas of Roxbury and the South End of Boston in three separate buildings: 158 Walnut Avenue, Roxbury; 36 Edgewood Street, Roxbury and 526 Massachusetts Avenue in the South End. These efficiency to 4 bedroom apartment homes enjoy easy access to bus and rail transportation, shopping, restaurants, recreational choices, medical facilities and major highway routes.

Dave's Thoughts On Renwood Apartments

Because Renwood Apartments 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.
