Clare Heights Senior Apartments is a modern 45-unit independent senior living community that provides residents ages 55-and-over the highest quality home at a reasonable price. There are no endowment or entrance fees. Built in 2002, the property is nestled in a quiet residential neighborhood close to popular shopping destinations, transportation and healthcare providers. Less than a quarter mile from Clare Heights lies both a shopping center containing Pick ‘N Save and Starbucks and a north/south access ramp for Interstate 43. Just over a mile away lies the 27th Street retail corridor (Walmart, Kohl’s, Marshall’s and a variety of dining options) and Aurora St. Luke’s Medical Center, which was ranked as the top hospital in southeast Wisconsin by US News and World Report. Clare Heights Senior Apartments provides residents with robust amenities that foster a close-knit community. The property has a high-end community room complete with modern furniture, high definition television, a cozy fireplace and a common area kitchen complete with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. A devotional room and onsite hair salon offers residents access to periodic religious services and pampering. Active residents can utilize a large, beautifully landscaped green space in the rear of the building that includes a community garden and new gas grill. At no extra charge, residents can take a weekly shuttle bus to the grocery store and coffee shop. A sense of community is fostered through holiday parties, summer picnics and movie nights. The property management is staffed onsite; access to the building is controlled by an intercom system.
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 Clare Heights Senior 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.
