How We Can Help:

How do I find affordable housing opportunities?New York City housing lotteries are listed on Housing Connect, a portal maintained by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development. You can also find listings advertised in newspapers and on HPD social media, as well as get sign up for updates from HPD. Include affordable housing email for new listings.
-
How are tenants selected for affordable housing?Tenants for affordable housing units are often chosen by a lottery process.

Preference may be given to: People who already live in the area Employees of the City of New York Veterans Residents who are physically, visually or hearing disabled
-
Do I qualify for affordable housing?Housing ads and website listings will include the minimum and maximum income limits for the available units. The ad for the housing will also tell you the size of the available units — studio, one bedroom, two bedroom — and the number of people who can live in each unit, based on the income limits set for each building. You will also need good credit, a steady income, a bank account, and a history of paying your bills on time.
