How to apply

  • Apply free on NYC Housing Connect with an account and a completed household profile. Nobody can charge you to apply.
  • Your household's total yearly income must fall inside the range for at least one unit size. Minimum incomes may not apply if you have a Section 8 voucher or another rental subsidy, according to the listings.
  • Send only one application per lottery. Housing Connect warns that applying online and by mail, or more than once, can get you disqualified.
  • Applying early does not improve your odds, HPD says.
  • For the Brooklyn Avenue and Herbert Street buildings, paper applications are available by sending a self-addressed envelope to the building, c/o Reside New York, 349 Keap St., Brooklyn, NY 11211, according to the listings.
