The Village Gate Apartments and Strattford Square Apartments are located in Omaha, Nebraska. This two site conversion and renovation project was financed using an insured HUD loan, IRS Section 42 Low Income Housing Tax Credits, Federal Home Loan Bank’s Affordable Housing Program funds, and a HUD Interest Reduction Payment (“IRP”) Contract. This 170 unit complex was built in 1970 and renovation of all units was completed in December 2007.

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.
Apartment communities that participate in the Section 236 program are required to ensure that their units are only available to families with incomes at or below 80% of the area median income. Rents at participating communities must be approved by HUD.
