Why renters use this database
- Data, not ads. Property facts come from HUD's Picture of Subsidized Households and LIHTC databases — the same records agencies use.
- Wait-time signals. See reported median waiting times before you spend weeks applying blindly.
- Program clarity. Every building is tagged by subsidy type so you know whether to apply at the property or through a housing authority.
- Always free. No accounts, no paywalls, no lead-selling. Sponsored slots keep it that way and are always labeled.
