The Eastwalk Housing Lottery Pre-Application

  • COMMON RENTAL PRE-APPLICATION

    UPON REQUEST, THE MANAGEMENT AGENT WILL PROVIDE HELP IN EXPLAINING THIS DOCUMENT. IF NECESSARY, PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES MAY ASK FOR THIS APPLICATION IN LARGE PRINT TYPE, OR OTHER ALTERNATE FORMATS AND ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE CAN BE PROVIDED.

  • Filling out a Pre-Application does not guarantee eligibility or qualification for an apartment at this development.

    After the Management Agent receives your completed Pre-Application, they will make a preliminary determination of eligibility based on program and property criteria. If your household appears to be eligible for housing, your household will be placed on a waiting list, but this does not mean that your household will be offered an apartment. Every household must be screened to qualify for an apartment. When your name nears the top of the waiting list, you will be contacted to provide additional information for eligibility, screening and suitability.

    If your household does not appear eligible, you will receive a letter denying your Pre-Application and you will not be placed on the waiting list. You will have the right to appeal this decision. Instructions for the appeal process will be provided with the appeal letter.

    The Pre-Application process will be completed in accordance with the Management Agent’s standard procedures, which are summarized in each development’s site-specific copy of the Tenant Selection Plan. Upon request to the Management Agent, you have the right to receive both the Tenant Selection Plan and the Tenant Selection Plan Resource Guide, which summarize eligibility and screening requirements for occupancy in the development.

    If you do not receive any information from the management agent within 30 calendar days of submitting this application, please contact the management agent directly.
