@@Pinkkermit17 Re: even the lottery price is overpriced. Not really. I live in a small town in Texas where the cost of living is MUCH lower than in NYC. I live in a really old and trashy trailer park. I've been here for 12 years and am thankfully grandfathered in at $450/month, but recently I asked my landlord how much the rent was for a new tenant and he's renting these old frankentrailers for between $800 and $900/month. Which I'll admit he's probably overcharging, but I just did a quick search and 1 bd 1 bth apartments don't go lower than $900, and the ones that low are not ones near as big and nice as the one this woman is in. Sadly rent and mortgage is just grossly unaffordable right now.

I’ve actually won twice, the first time was for low income housing back in 2009 it took me a little under 2 years from the time I began applying. The second lottery was for middle income housing and went much faster! I began applying in Jan 2021 and was moved in by Nov 2021. I think the trick is a good credit score, once I authorized the credit check I was offered the apartment the same week and of course my rent and security deposit were ready to go. I pay $2200 for a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom, in-unit washer/dryer and (my favorite!) a small balcony 🙏🏽❤️ my income at that time was $94k. I hope you get your Dream apartment good luck!!

We were told that the status proving was random, but my daughter was selected 3-4 times a year. Complaints fell on deaf ears.

The ones after, I had already gotten my own luxury apt in the Bronx (yes, there are many luxury buildings there) so I wasn’t going to break my lease. Right before I moved to Florida at the end of 2023, I got called back like 10 times for different buildings but didnt take them because the rent was what I was already paying since my income had gone up. I also wanted to leave NYC. But its crazy how once I started making more money, the more call backs I was getting. I think its because the lower income brackets have so much competition.

That's insane and congrats! It must be amazing to be able to save money!! I'm in Seattle and pay $1800+ utilities and they could EASILY charge $2400/month for my condo but I've been here for 8-9yrs and the landlord has been super amazing and kept the rent the same. That said, my wife and I live on my sole income(she's disabled and currently fighting to get disability)which at times can leave us with a couple hundred bucks to live on/a month. If I wanted the Seattle equivalent to the NY rent lottery, it's about a 10 year waitlist for the affordable housing program here which is..well..absurd? Crazy? I just can't believe we have to go to such lengths just to get by like "normal folks". The thought of buying a house/condo anywhere within several hundred miles is so outta reach, I've NEVER considered it! I hope something changes but as it goes it looks like corporate conglomerates and property companies will own all of the land/housing over the next couple decades and the younger generations will never have access to the generational wealth that we're supposed to be building with owning our own homes... Sad! Sad that for it to even be a POSSIBILITY, one has to win a "Housing Lottery"...

So, as a New Yorker born and raised, let me tell you about these apartment lotteries... Every new luxury construction is now required to set aside a certain number of units for low income housing. Sounds great right! Wrong! 1. They don't advertise them: There is a website (housing connect) that you can check periodically to see what's available across the five boroughs. However, don't look for ads, they don't exist. 2. The income and houshold guidelines are typically so strict, that virtually no one can meet them and those that do, don't know these exist. 3. If said units are not rented within a certain period of time, they are allowed to go back on the market at fair market value. But hey, that's NYC living! That's exactly why I left. LOL!

She's lucky to have gotten something with such low rent as anyone that has applied for the housing lotto knows that the rents in many of these apartments are insane.

I left a rough home at 17 and was very poor for a very long time. Housing was always a struggle and I lived in some appalling and precarious situations. Sometimes, I had to stay with sexual predators, in filth and surrounded by drugs, just so I wouldn't be on the street. I finally built a career for myself and was doing okay, when middle age approached and all those injuries from the child abuse caught up to me and I became physically disabled and unable to work. This happened just as housing prices in my city sky rocketed above those in NYC. Imagine the terror! A few years later, I met my husband, who was also poor, and a single father too. He started a small business that is now doing very well and two years ago we bought a house! I cannot tell you how wonderful it is to feel secure in my housing for the first time in my life. But here's the thing: I'm 53 and I still have nightmares about homelessness. In these nightmares, I struggle horribly to find an apartment I can afford and somehow make into home that I will never leave. Those years of poverty stick with me. In these nightmares, I long for something exactly like what this woman has. It makes me feel calm and relaxed just watching how calm and relaxed she is knowing that she has a really decent home that she can afford and can keep as long as she wants. Her story would be the perfect ending to my nightmares, turning them into dreams come true for my younger self.

this is misleading, if you applied with 110k income, youd get an apartment with like $-500 less rent than market price

You’re correct but she doesn’t make 110k. There is always a range of rents based on your income.

My daughter won the housing lottery too. It enabled her to be able to live in the neighborhood she grew up in which would have been out of her reach due to gentrification! This needs to be offered more widely!
