I don't believe that anyone from this list has been called yet. I know for the 1 bed lotto the next number to be called, according to Housing Connect, will be off of the new 2015 list. I believe only 2 per floor on each side of the building (so 4 per floor, 20 floors total). That kinda makes sense because there aren't that many studios in the building anyway. Hopefully for your situation they're just adding onto the current list. the one that says 536 on Housing Connect) or starting a brand new list. I'm not sure if they're tossing the new lottery numbers on to the existing list (i.e. Not surprising that the person answering the phone wouldn't, or couldn't, give you any info. From what I remember on the York Hill letter it said that any inquiries regarding the wait list needs to be in writing to them and you can only write once every 6 months. BUT IF THEY DON'T KNOW, how can I ask them in writing? Then she said to ask in writing and someone would answer. The lady had no idea what I meant and told me they don't know. This way, I wanted to see if I am only 200 away or potentially 700 away. Because my number is in the 700s I wanted to ask if this is a continuation of the current list, OR if they will get to the end of the list (whenever that is) and start over again. They're currently up to 536 as per Mitchell Lama connect. So I tried calling Tudor Realty today re: the York Hill studio wait list. I was under the impression they were trying to pass a law to do away with that and also ease up on the credit report requirements. SOME still do a home visit from what I hear. This above was specifically for Big Six but I wouldn't be surprised if it was more or less universal across all ML buildings. I'm sure that happens a lot.Īnyway I know that was a long post, but I hope it answered your question and helped out you or anyone else wondering what the process was. That's why just about any communication you'll have with a ML building before you move in will say "reply in X amount of days" - they're hoping to shorten the wait list (and the level of work they have to do) by disqualifying people who miss the deadlines. But now, I think a lot of these buildings that went up in the early 1960s are experiencing higher than normal levels of expected vacancy - due to older residents passing away and not leaving succession, and people on the previous wait lists no longer being available (not interested, over or under income, not reachable, etc.). I was expecting a good 5, maybe even 10 years, sitting on the wait list.which in the past for any sort of ML building was common place. Mind you.this is considered a short amount of time. Then you play the waiting game for another undefined amount of time, as Big Six turns your unit over and preps for your move-in.įor us, the whole process took 2.5 years from the time we received the first letter saying that we were picked from the lotto and added to the wait list, until the day we actually closed on the apartment and had keys in hand. Then you play the waiting game, upwards of 6-8 weeks, to hear back on whether your app was approved. with a credit/background check and proof of income. That's when you have to do an official application that goes to HPD and includes info about your household and each household member's income in more detail, incld. You have X amount of days to respond." You schedule, go and look at apartments, basically have another 'X amount' of days to accept what you looked at, and then that's when the fun starts. Second - when the wait list gets closer to the log number you were assigned, Big Six / Elliman Management will send you a letter saying basically "Hey, your number is next on the list, call us to schedule a time for a viewing. But basically you have to sent back a reply saying that you acknowledge your log number & their letter, and include a certified check for $200-250. This fee/deposit is usually in the ballpark of $200-250 and -I THINK- when you close, it gets knocked off the purchase price of your shares.
You have to reply in writing to them in X amount of days with all of the info - basic household composition with ages and income, and an application fee or deposit. Even if you applied online via HousingConnect and did not mail in a postcard, when you get officially selected you'll receive a physical letter. These log numbers are also posted on Housing Connect under 'status' if you're selected. I was not selected, and I used to live in Woodside for so many years.įor those called in for the Big Six, were you contacted by mail,phone,email?įirst - You'll get a letter saying that your name was selected from the lottery, and they'll include a basic preliminary application with a log number assigned to it.
