Understanding Income Restriction
Maximum income is determined by household size and is based on gross annual (pre-tax) income. Moderate-income and student status restrictions apply. Units cannot be entirely occupied by full-time students. Some exemptions apply—contact us for details. (Pricing, inclusions, and eligibility subject to change.)
Frequently Asked Questions
No. Income-restricted apartments are not voucher-based. Residents apply directly through the property.
Eligibility is based on gross annual household income, including wages, benefits, and other income sources as defined by HUD.
Yes. Income eligibility is typically reviewed annually to ensure continued program compliance.
Student status restrictions apply. Full-time students cannot entirely occupy units. Some exemptions may apply—contact us for details.
Example: Two roommates who are both full-time students would not qualify under the “entirely occupied” rule. If one household member is not a full-time student, eligibility may still be possible (income limits and verification still apply).
