Find a Low Income, Rent Assisted, Affordable or Section 8 Apartment

Some affordable housing programs offer tax credits to property owners who provide lower rent for tenants. These units, known as Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) apartments, often have reduced rent rates for qualified tenants. Be sure to check if you qualify for these programs when searching for an affordable apartment.

Check for Employer Assistance Programs

Some employers offer housing assistance programs, including down payment grants, reduced interest rates, or rental subsidies. Speak with your HR department to see if your employer offers such benefits. This can provide substantial financial relief.
