Since this property may have a Section 8 Property Based Rental Assistance contract with rental assistance available to its residents, it is likely the property has a waiting list. Sometimes these waiting lists can be months or years long and may or may not be accepting new applicants. 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.
Packer Townhouses, located one block from Northport Apartments, is a townhouse community serving 140 low-income families. Its emphasis on employment and education is identical to Northport’s.
Packer Community Learning Center houses a Neighborhood Networks computer lab with 30 work stations. This cutting-edge equipment is reflective of a resident-driven emphasis on graphic arts, web design, and digital video production. Not only have residents accessed training, but they are becoming training providers in the community.
Partners in technology at Northport and Packer include the University of Wisconsin, Madison Metropolitan School District, Wisconsin Center for Academically Talented Youth, Citizens’ Scholarship Foundation of America, Inc., Madison Police Department and the Dane County job center.
Since Packer Townhouses participates in the Section 8 Project-Based Rental Assistance program, your rent would be subsidized. You would not pay more than 30% of your income for rent. To qualify, you must earn 50% or less of the Area Median Income (AMI), which you can find on this page’s income chart. Also, project-based Section 8 properties tend to have longer waiting lists, with some with waiting lists going out for years. Since this property participates in the Section 8 Project Based Rental Assistance 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.

Wait until you have a Section 8 voucher to find housing.
It usually takes months or years to reach the top of a Section 8 HCV waiting list. Any apartments you see now will likely not be available when you get your voucher.Bishop Demetres Walker says:
