Rent Assistance Programs

Rent Assistance Programs

CADA manages 784 apartments. Of these 784 apartments, 25 percent are rent-assisted for low-income households. This means that the rent a resident pays is set as a percentage of  income, rather than the market. The number of apartments available at any given time is limited and there are waiting lists for most of CADA’s rental assistance programs (as noted below). When waiting lists are open pre-applications will be accepted beginning on the date the lists open, and no sooner. See below for information on each rental assistance program, as well as a chart of current income limits. (Please note that income limits and rents are subject to change prior to an applicant being offered the opportunity to apply for an apartment. All rents and incomes limits are current as of 1-1-12.)

Rent-Assisted housing applicants must meet CADA’s standard rental requirements, but may be considered even if the household income is less than the requisite 2-3 times the amount of the rent if applicant can show a successful history of paying a similar rent to income ratio.  For further information please contact the CADA Affordable Housing Assistant at (916) 322-2114, or stop by CADA’s rental office at 1522 14th Street.
