Willow Grove Apartments, Coming Spring 2020 to North Branch!
Willow Grove is the new construction of affordable housing targeted to individuals with severe and persistent mental illnesses. The Region 7E Adult Mental Health Initiative has worked closely with the Central Minnesota Housing Partnership to develop housing for this underserved population. The building is made up of 20 one-bedroom apartments, all of which will be occupied by single adults. This style of housing was chosen in order to give this population the privacy and space they need. All units will be priced at 30-50% AMI, and support services will be available on-site.The development is being modeled after similar developments in Owatonna and Winona, both south of the Twin Cities. These developments proved to be a great success at stabilizing people with severe and persistent mental illness – allowing them to find steady employment, go back to school, and even enroll in college.
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 Willow Grove 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. 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. Since this property participates in the LIHTC program, the property is required to accept Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers.
