Waitlist Forecast

Since this property may have HUD-funded Public Housing with subsidies that help pay tenants' rent, the property is likely to have a long waiting list. Housing authorities often open these waiting lists periodically. Important: Housing authorities don't always open housing waiting lists at a property-specific level or even allow applicants to choose at which property they can live. Many times, the housing authority will assign an applicant to a property without giving the applicant a choice.

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.

Perretta Twin Towers consist of two- 10 stories, masonry structures, each with 52 – one bedroom units and two –two bedroom units. This complex was completed in 1972 and is for Senior/Disabled tenants. The first floor of this structure is the Home of the MHA Main Executive Offices. It also contains an active community room with Kitchen and small lounge area for the use of the tenants. It has onsite laundry and elevators for tenant use. This development is on a main bus route and in walking distance to downtown and quite a few of our local popular restaurants.

Dave's Thoughts On Perretta Twin Towers

This property is funded through HUD’s Public Housing program. These properties are typically owned and managed by a Public Housing Authority. These properties tend to be much older, as no new public housing has been built in many years. Since the Federal budget has historically (and notoriously) underfunded public housing renovations for decades, these properties tend to have higher vacancies due to uninhabitable units or liveable units that are in poor condition. In addition, since all public housing properties offer rent subsidies, low-income residents only pay rent based on their incomes. For that reason, these properties tend to have longer waiting lists. Check our public housing waiting list data for more information. Since Perretta Twin Towers participates in the Public Housing program and has a property based subsidy, if you have a Section 8 voucher, you would have to give up your voucher to move in.
