Every year in January, Burbank Housing Corporation (BHC) announces its annual waiting list update. This update provides the status of our waiting lists for the year and informs the community about potential waiting list openings.Â
BHC conducts an annual waiting list audit to determine whether a closed waiting list has the capacity to reopen and accept new applicants. Please keep in mind that some waiting lists remain closed for several years.Â
Our organization maintains four income-based waiting lists for our Affordable Housing Program, which includes the “Extremely Low”, “Very Low”, “Lower” and “Moderate” Income Waiting Lists. To learn what income level your household qualifies for, please visit our “How to Apply” page: CLICK HERE
Please read the section below to be updated on the status of our waiting lists for 2021.
Unfortunately, the “Extremely Low” Income Waiting List is filled to capacity and our office is unable to accept new applications during 2021. Interested applicants may contact our office in January 2022 to learn if the waiting list will reopen next year.Â
Unfortunately, the “Very Low” Income Waiting List is filled to capacity and our office is unable to accept new applications during 2021. Interested applicants may contact our office in January 2022 to learn if the waiting list will reopen next year.
Burbank Housing Corporation (BHC) will be opening the application process for our “Lower” Income Waiting List Lottery on Monday, March 1, 2021 at 8:00 a.m. PST. Lottery applications must be submitted no later than Friday, March 12, 2021 at 4:00 p.m. PST. For more information about the application process, visit our 2021 Lower Income Waiting List Lottery page.Â
Lottery applications will only be accepted online via our website. Applicants must have an email address to apply. If you are a person with a disability and require a reasonable accommodation to complete the online application, please call (818) 559-2336 and leave a message or email us through our contact form.Â
Once the application process closes, eligible applicants will be entered into a lottery system and a limited number of applications will be randomly selected and placed at the bottom of the “Lower” Income Waiting List. Households that are not drawn during the waiting list lottery will have to reapply in the future. Please keep in mind that applying for the waiting list lottery does NOT guarantee you a position on our waiting list. Â
Eligibility is based on the household’s gross annual income and household size. View our waiting list flyer for the State “Lower” Income Limits and further details about the lottery application process: VIEW FLYER HERE
