Contact Woodlands Newell

Woodlands Newell is a newly renovated affordable housing community for families in East Palo Alto. In 2013, two neighboring MidPen properties communities became one to more efficiently refinance and renovate them together. In fall 2014, renovation completed and the two properties were renamed Woodlands Newell. The extensive rehabilitation involved both interior and exterior renovations. Some of these enhancements included: new interior flooring, cabinetry, and bathroom fixtures; new exterior siding and stucco; double-pane windows; seismic upgrades to the carports; and energy-efficient features such as a solar hot water system. Woodlands Newell’s community building was also completely rehabilitated, and now includes a kitchen, computer lab, management offices, and an After School Program classroom.

Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC)

Since this property has received funding in part through the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, a certain number of units are set aside for lower income households. Households must earn either less than 50% or 60% of the area median income (depending on the set-aside option chosen by the property owner) to qualify for these units. Rents in these units are capped at a maximum of 30% of the set-aside area median income (adjusted for unit size). Some rental units in this property may not be subject to LIHTC and therefore have higher rents and no maximum household income requirement.
