Additional Committed Affordable Housing Units

Privately owned and operated rental properties can also be labeled “committed affordable” by virtue of receiving state, federal and/or local resources to support the new development, acquisition, and/or rehabilitation of affordable housing. Rents and income limits can vary depending on the requirements tied to each unit or property.

Note for Property Owners: To have your property listed among the opportunities for committed affordable housing on our website, please email us the name of the property, address, phone number and a description of the affordable units that you have (studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, etc.).

A number of privately owned properties in Virginia are “committed affordable” through the acceptance of federal Low Income Housing Tax Credits. The program is administered within the Commonwealth by Virginia Housing.

Vacancies within LIHTC properties are posted regularly on VirginiaHousingSearch.com

To learn more about the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit program, visit Virginia Housing’s website. You will find a link for a Tax Credit Property Listing under “More Information.” This list will indicate all tax credit properties located in Virginia.
