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.

Though this woodland sanctuary has the feeling of a tucked-away retreat, it's walking distance from North Shore Senior High School, and San Jacinto College (North Campus) and school bus service to  Dr. Shirley J Williamson Elementary School – and convenient to the grocery, nail salon, and other services that will soon become regular stops. Forest Creek is a gated community with all the amenities you could need on this side of the fence: a fitness center, washer and dryer connections, refreshing pool, and even a playground within the community.  Added perks like your own private patio (or balcony), personal storage room, walk-in or extended closets, and a private entrance make this home an easy yes.

If you’re on the hunt for affordable apartments in Houston that are cozy, clean, and cost-conscious, you’ll want to put Forest Creek Apartments at the top of your list.
Forest Creek Apartments is pleased to offer affordable living options (income restrictions apply).

Dave's Thoughts On Forest Creek Apartments

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 Forest Creek 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.
