How long will it take to hear back?

It depends on volume and how many programs in your area we need to check, but we aim to reply as quickly as we reasonably can. This is a matching step, not an instant approval, so allow some time.

Does it cost anything to submit this form?

No. Submitting your details and getting connected with a housing program or leasing office through this directory doesn't cost you anything.

What information should I include so the reply is actually useful?

At minimum: your city or county, household size, and a rough sense of your income. It also helps to say if you're on any existing waitlists, whether you need accessible or senior housing, and how soon you need to move.

Will this get me to the top of a waitlist faster?

No. We can only point you to programs that seem to fit and help you find the right office to contact. Waitlist order and eligibility are decided by the housing authority or property, not by us.

Fill out the form below with what you're looking for, and your details go to our directory team. We use them to point you toward a housing program, leasing office, property manager, or local housing authority that matches your situation, whether that's a public housing waitlist, a Section 8 voucher program, or a privately run affordable apartment community.

Housing programs vary a lot by county, household size, income bracket, and whether a waitlist is even open right now. To get a useful reply, tell us your city or county, household size, roughly where your income falls, and whether you need something immediately or are planning ahead. Mention if you're already on any waitlists, or if you need specific accommodations like accessible units or elderly housing. The more specific you are, the better we can narrow down which program is worth your time to contact.

Waitlists for affordable housing can run from weeks to years depending on the area, so this isn't an instant-answer situation. We'll get back to you as soon as we can with a program or contact that fits what you told us. If nothing seems like a fit right away, we'll say so rather than send you somewhere that won't work out.
