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.

Ideally located near Worcester's boutique shopping and dining, educational institutions and recreational activities, Canal Lofts breathes new life into the city's historic industrial epicenter. The building has been carefully restored into 64 residences including a unique mix of bi-level lofts, 1 and 2 bedroom, and 2 plus den floor plans. Canal Lofts unites past and present with dramatic elements of Victorian architecture and sleek modern design. Expansive windows, designer kitchens and contemporary amenities create the ideal urban experience.

Dave's Thoughts On Canal Lofts

Because Canal Lofts 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.
