How to apply for subsidized housing in Greenville

  1. Apply to buildings directly. Project-based Section 8, public housing, §202/§811 and LIHTC properties run their own waitlists — contact each office using the details on its page.
  2. Join voucher waitlists. Your regional housing authority administers Housing Choice Vouchers; ask about current openings and preferences. Step-by-step application guide →
  3. Document everything. ID, Social Security cards, birth certificates, and income proof speed up both paths.
  4. Stay reachable. Update your address everywhere — missed mail is the top reason applicants lose spots.
