How to Apply for LIHI Housing

(Como se aplica para alojamiento de LIHI: en español clic AQUI)

Current LIHI vacancies are listed below on this web page, which will be updated on a weekly basis. Please check income and other restrictions on each unit to make sure you qualify prior to applying.

Basic Procedure: Mail or fax applications directly to the managers of the available apartments you are interested in. More details below.

If you are interested in units at more than one apartment building/property you will have to submit separate applications to each (Exception:  if an apartment building has more than one identical unit open, please only send 1 application). Once you have identified an apartment you qualify for that you are interested in, download the application by clicking HERE, fill it out, and mail, fax, or hand deliver it to the apartment manager at the address listed for that unit.  WE WILL NOT ACCEPT ANY APPLICATIONS AT THE MAIN OFFICE. If you have a Priority Placement letter from LIHI (these were sent to persons on our old waiting list when we terminated it), please include a COPY of it with your application:  DO NOT send the original.  We will not save it and you will lose your priority placement.

Applications are processed on a first come, first served basis. If your application is approved, the apartment manager will contact you and explain the next steps you will need to take.  You will need to respond quickly.  If you do not, we will contact the next applicant in line.  We will take the first qualified tenant with a deposit to hold the unit. Once the unit you have applied for is filled, all applications for that unit will be destroyed. Neither the apartment manager nor LIHI will keep any applications on file (exception--see WAITLIST PROPERTIES at bottom of page). You must submit a new application for each new vacancy you are interested in.

Rent Amount note:  Rents are listed either as a $ figure or as a % of income.  If it is a $ figure, then the rent is that amount.  If it is a %, then rent will be a $ amount equal to that % of your income.

Section 8 Voucher note:  all units that list a $ figure for rent accept Section 8 vouchers.  Section 8 vouchers cannot be used on already subsidized units (these units have rent listed as a % of income).

Pet Policy:  LIHI has a no pet policy, except at the Waitlist Properties listed at the bottom of this page.  Service animals are allowed.
