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.
Ronald Commons is an affordable housing development in Shoreline at 178th Street between Aurora Avenue North and Linden Avenue North. The mixed-use building includes 60 units of affordable housing owned and operated by Compass Housing Alliance and is complemented by a 12,000 square feet Hopelink Integrated Service Center and food bank.
The Integrated Service Center includes a food bank, family services, and financial education and assistance for low-income households. An internal courtyard, play area, and walking path create an integrated connection between the three program facilities.
Because Compass at Ronald Commons 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.
