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.

The Willows at Rahway is a new affordable rental community with artist housing located in the Rahway Arts District in downtown Rahway, NJ. The community consists of 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom apartments featuring a full host of amenities including fully-equipped kitchens, washers & dryers, large closets, plank flooring, and energy efficient appliances and finishes. The community caters to artists with designated artist spaces throughout the community, as well as a fitness center and several furnished sundecks. Additionally, the community is pet friendly, offers fully-accessible rentals and has management offices on-site. Located in the heart of Rahway, this community is near the Rahway River, Arts Park, Rahway station, and is convenient to local retail, dining and entertainment.
Because The Willows at Rahway 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.
