Our team of housing experts work every day to give you the latest updates for low-income apartments nationwide. But it's a challenge to accurately report the waiting list status for properties, since they can open and close at a moment's notice.
So, to make sure you have the best information available, we have created a Waiting List Forecast that predicts the likely waiting list status for an apartment. Every Waiting List Forecast is carefully made by our housing experts who know how to spot the signs of properties with a waiting list, and how long the list might be.
And we're proud to announce this new feature is only available on Affordable Housing Online! Other affordable housing websites do not have the decades of experience that we have as analysts, administrators, and developers to give reliable waiting list predictions.
While you're on an apartment page on Affordable Housing Online, the Waiting List Forecast can be found below the property name and address near the top of the page. And you can scroll down just below that section to get a short summary about what led us to this prediction.
These Waiting Lists Forecasts help you know what to expect if you're interested in applying for an affordable apartment, but it's important to know that these are just predictions — Affordable Housing Online has not confirmed the waiting list status of these properties.
Check out our new Waiting List Forecasts by searching for apartments in your area:

Some housing assistance programs require a credit check, including Low-Income Housing Tax Credit apartments. Having bad credit may make you ineligible.Hope Brown says:
