LongCrest Apartments offers affordable 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom apartment homes for low-income seniors ages 62 and older. Each unit includes a fully-equipped kitchen, individually controlled heating/air conditioning, spacious closets, emergency pull cords, and walk-in showers. Property amenities include a large community room, fitness room, two (2) libraries, meeting rooms, resident storage, resident service coordinator, and on-site laundry facilities.
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 LongCrest 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.
