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.

Developed by Artspace Projects, Inc., Hiawatha is conveniently located in the Jackson Place neighborhood in Seattle's Central District.

Hiawatha Artist Lofts is committed to attracting individuals and families from diverse backgrounds. We encourage all people to apply, with a preference placed on applicants who can demonstate a commitment to the creative arts. Pets are allowed with some limitations. Only common household pets are allowed and is defined as follows: small birds confined to cages, tropical fish in tanks no larger than 20 gallons, cats and dogs under 25 lbs. A pet deposit of $300 will be required by each resident keeping a cat or dog in his/her dwelling unit. No more than 2 pets per apartment.

Due to the artist preference in place, all applicants will meet with the ASC to talk with all members of your household and will ask questions about your commitment to the arts, to the community and your interest in living at Hiawatha Artist Lofts. Prospective residents are given an opportunity to show their portfolio/examples of their work and ask any questions they may have at that time. In the Artist Screening Committee interview you must be prepared to demonstrate that you are actively engaged in an art form. You must show a body of work, commitment to pursue that work in the future and community involvement.

We are not accepting Reusable Tenant Screening Reports at this time. This institution is an equal opportunity provider and employer.

Dave's Thoughts On Hiawatha Artist Lofts

Because Hiawatha Artist Lofts 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.
