Brookside Place Apartments

Welcome to Brookside Place Apartments.  Our community is operated under the Affordable Housing Program, within Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code.  This program is designed to facilitate the housing needs of moderate and middle income families.  Residency at Brookside Place Apartments requires that applicants meet certain qualifying standards established by the government and the Managing Agent.  This program is not connected with Section 8, although applicants with Section 8 vouchers or certificates may apply for residency.

Residency at Brookside Place Apartments is limited to those households having moderate incomes.  In addition to standard wages, income includes monies received from many sources such as alimony, child support, pensions, and social security.  The maximum allowable incomes (by household size) are as follows:

Minimum income requirements are guidelines and are based upon the size of the household and the size of the apartment.  Minimum income requirements may be waived under certain circumstances such as the ability to provide a higher security deposit or to obtain a cosigner for the lease.  Maximum occupancy limits at Brookside Place Apartments are set at two people per bedroom.  The Head of Household must be age 55 or older.

All information on income provided by applicants must be verified before occupancy.  This qualification and certification process must also be completed annually upon renewal.  In addition to standard wages, income includes monies received from many sources such as alimony, child support, social security, pensions, and AFDC.  A complete definition of income is available for inspection upon request.
