Utilities Tenants are required to pay utilities as follows: Heat - Electric Cooking - Electric Air-conditioning - Electric Hot water - Electric Electric Cable Internet Telephone Initial Tenant Selection Procedures General Process Eligibility for a unit involves three steps: Timely submission of a completed Application; Timely submission of additional information required necessary to assess preliminary program eligibility for tenancy including income, tax returns, and related documentation; and Final review by the Owner/Manager for tenancy including credit checks, backgrounds checks, employment and leasing history. Step One – Submission of Waitlist Application Applications will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis and may only be submitted on-line. DO NOT deliver applications in any other manner such as by mail or hand-delivery as they will NOT be accepted. To submit the electronic application, go to CDLI’s website at www.cdli.org and click on the link for North District Lofts Application. Applicants will be placed on a wait list in the order in which their application is received. Applications will be automatically dated and time stamped for submission and included in a database. Applicants will be notified of their waitlist rank number by CDLI. CDLI will contact applicants in ranked order to determine formal eligibility for a unit. Inclusion on the Waitlist represents only the first step for initial compliance and does not guarantee preliminary approval or eligibility for a unit. Step Two – Preliminary Eligibility Review As applicant’s names are reached on the Waitlist, CDLI will contact applicants in ranked order, by email, if available, or by phone. If an applicant remains interested, the applicant will be asked to submit required documentation that will include: last 2 years of federal income tax returns, W-2 and/or 1099 form; four most recent consecutive pay stubs; three most recent consecutive monthly bank statements for all bank accounts and investment accounts. The applicant will have 5 business days to provide the fully completed Formal Rental Application together with all supporting documentation. If the foregoing is not received by CDLI within such time period, the applicant will be ineligible and a letter will be sent confirming same. The applicant will also be required to provide certain consents in order to permit CDLI to verify income submissions and employment. Income will include all gross income, including, but not limited to, income from full and part time employment, overtime, bonuses, tips, pensions, social security, 401k and IRA distributions, child support, alimony, and severance pay. ALL sources of income are included and will be annualized for the upcoming 12-month period. Total income minus allowable exclusions, if any, cannot exceed the maximum income limits. Once a full review of the Formal Rental Application has been completed, the applicant will be notified by email, if available, or by regular mail of their status. If the applicant is deemed eligible, they will be provided with a link to complete the full rental application. A $20 application fee is required and may be payable by credit card. Upon submission of a complete full rental application and application fee, the Owner/Manager will complete a final review and assessment pursuant to Step 3 below. Step Three – Tenant Suitability Screening The third step in the process is for the Owner/Manager to conduct a final eligibility review for those applicants deemed preliminarily eligible pursuant to Step 2 above. As applicants are deemed eligible pursuant to Step 2 above, they will be provided with a link to complete the full rental application including upload of bank statements, pay stubs and photo ID. A $20 application fee is required to be paid by credit or debit card online. Owner/Manager eligibility review will involve assessing the applicant’s suitability for tenancy through employment verification, leasing history, creditworthiness, and criminal background checks utilizing a reputable company and adhering to the Fair Credit Reporting Act. A personal interview will also be conducted by the Owner/Manager. Applicants will also be required to show that they are able to provide first month’s rent and a security deposit. Applicants who are successfully screened will be offered the opportunity to enter into a written Lease Agreement. Criminal Background Search A criminal background check will be conducted. There are two mandatory reasons why an applicant WILL be denied tenancy based on their criminal background: applicant or any member of the household has been convicted for methamphetamine production; or applicant or any member of the household is a lifetime registrant on a State or Federal Sex Offender database. In addition, Owner/Manager will assess applicants with criminal convictions and pending arrests for offenses that: involved physical danger or violence to persons or property or that adversely affected the health, safety and welfare of other people. These categories of crimes are relevant because they relate to the behavior expected of a tenant, who is to live peaceably alongside other tenants and to respect their property. An individualized assessment will be conducted and a determination made which may result in an applicant being denied. Credit History A credit report will be obtained on each applicant. Applicant must have a satisfactory credit history of meeting financial obligations, including timely payment of rent. Applicants cannot have been late on rental payments in the last 12 months. Outstanding judgements, collections, a history of late payments, and criminal history may be a cause for ineligibility. A minimum credit score of 650 is required. Credit history, outstanding judgements, collections, a history of late payments, and criminal history are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Appeals Owner/Manager will provide written notice to an applicant who is rejected on the basis of any of the above screening criteria. The applicant will have five business days to submit a written appeal to the Owner/Manager. The appeal will be reviewed by a member of the Owner/Manager staff not involved in the initial review and rejection and such party will provide a final written determination within ten days of receipt of the applicant’s written appeal. Annual Income Recertification Tenants will be recertified annually in accordance with the guidelines established for affordability. Tenants will be provided with an affordable unit recertification checklist and acknowledgement at time of lease up which details income recertification requirements. At annual recertification, the maximum allowable income shall not exceed 100% of the then applicable 80% of HUD Area Median income for Suffolk County as adjusted for family size. If tenant income exceeds maximum income required for the affordable units, the tenant may continue to occupy the unit but rent will be adjusted to market rent. In the event a unit previously designated as affordable is converted to market rent, the next available unit will be designated as affordable in conformance with the requirements stated within these Program Guidelines. Affordability Period The affordability restrictions stated above will remain in effect in perpetuity at the discretion of the Town of Islip Town Board. Waitlist The Intake Waitlist will convert to a permanent waitlist once the 18 affordable units are leased-up. When vacancies occur, the first eligible applicant on the waitlist will be contacted to inform him/her that a unit is available at the preferred mode of contact as indicated on the Waitlist Intake Form. Three attempts will be made to inform the applicant before proceeding to the next applicant on the list; all attempts will be documented. If the applicant is no longer interested, the application will be removed from the waitlist with an explanation for the reason for the removal from the waitlist. Interested applicants will have 5 business days to provide a completed Formal Rental Application, together with the required documentation as set forth above in order to conduct income certification, employment verification, creditworthiness, and background checks as described in Step 2 and Step 3 above. Commitment to Fair Housing & Nondiscrimination The Owner/Manager is fully committed to enforcing the spirit and the letter of Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968 (Federal Fair Housing Law), the Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the New York Human Rights Act, and the Suffolk County Human Rights Act. Neither the Owner/Manager nor any of its affiliates, employees, agents, or brokers will discriminate in the sale, lease, advertisement or financing of housing against any individual or family because of race, color, national origin, religion, gender, disability, gender identity, marital status, sexual orientation, veteran/military status, source of income, or on the basis of any other protected class. Reasonable Accommodations/Modifications For Persons with Disabilities Persons with disabilities are entitled to request a reasonable accommodation in rules, policies, practices or services, or to request a reasonable modification in the housing, when such accommodations or modifications may be necessary to afford such persons an equal opportunity to use and enjoy the housing. Reasonable accommodations will be offered to all disabled persons who request accommodations due to disability at any time during the application, resident selection and leasing process. Compliance with the Violence Against Women Act (“VAWA”) As applicable, Owner/Manager will adhere to the VAWA final rule that prohibits denial of tenancy or eviction as a result of an incident of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking that is reported and confirmed.

  • First Time Homebuyer Education | How CDLI Can Help

Buying a home can be challenging especially for a first-timer. Whether you are ready to buy a home right away, or whether you need additional preparation, the team at CDLI will help you through every step of the way! Learn more about our First Time Homebuyer program: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJn6SvOJsKs Homebuyer Education Classes CDLI offers comprehensive Homebuyer Education (HBE) classes that fulfill the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) 8-hour requirement. These classes are led by HUD-Certified Housing Counselors and are designed to prepare first-time homebuyers with the knowledge and tools they need to navigate the homebuying process with confidence. What to Expect: Classes are offered both in-person and via Zoom The cost is $50 for the course Participants receive one-on-one counseling following the class A Certificate of Completion is provided, which is often required for down payment assistance or grant programs (e.g., SONYMA) Our classes include guidance from: A HUD-Certified Housing Counselor A loan officer A licensed real estate agent A real estate attorney Frequently Asked Questions Do I receive a certificate after the Orientation? The Orientation is an informational session regarding our services with the focus on Homebuyer Education. Although there isn’t any certificate provided to you upon completion of the Orientation, it gives you the opportunity to enroll in our Homebuyer Education Program. You will receive a Certificate of Homebuyer Education upon completion of the 8 hour class and one to one appointment with your Housing Educator. What is the "one to one" appointment? Upon completion of the homebuyer education class, you’ll schedule an appointment to meet with one of CDLI’s knowledgeable Housing Educators to discuss your individual housing goals. This is for your benefit! Ask lots of questions so the Housing Educator can assist you accordingly. During this appointment, the Housing Educator will review your income, assets, credit and budget. They’ll discuss various mortgage programs and grants that may apply to your current housing goals. The Housing Educator will provide you with guidance and resources to assist you as you navigate the homebuying process. At the end of the appointment, you will be provided a detailed action plan with your next steps, a summary of your budget and the homebuyer education certificate. The Housing Educator will follow up with you monthly to see how you’re progressing towards homeownership. How long is the homebuyer education certificate good for? Your homebuyer education certificate is good for one year after the date of your one to one appointment. Is there a fee for the Homebuyer Education? Yes. The class is offered in person or virtually and the fees vary depending on how you take the class. Our in person class is $50.00. We also offer our class via zoom and the fee is the same. There are also two options for you to take the class online. With the online options, you can complete the 8 hour class at your leisure. The online options are either $75.00 or $100.00. What is covered in the Homebuyer Education Class? The class covers what you need to know from the pre-approval to closing and everything in between. Renting vs. buying, budgeting, credit. You’ll learn about the role of a loan officer, realtor, home inspector, homeowner’s insurance agent, and closing attorney. Also covered is emergency preparedness and post closing resources. If you choose our in person class, we have professionals in the field discuss their role. How do grants work? Grants are based on household income, household size and availability. Homebuyer education is typically a pre-requisite just to apply. Most grants must be awarded to you prior to signing contract on a home. They typically cover various regions/areas of Long Island. For example, there may be a grant that covers Nassau County and one that covers Suffolk County. Keep in mind that you should be “homebuyer ready” prior to applying for a grant, meaning that you have a pre-approval. Remember, a grant may cover some of the down payment and closing costs so you’ll need a pre-approval to cover difference. Are grants just for down payment? In addition to grants for down payment, some cover home repairs/renovations. Do I have to repay any grants that I receive? Typically, grants have a “recapture clause", meaning that as you remain in the home, the grant is forgiven over time. For example, if a grant has a 10 year recapture clause, a portion of the grant is forgiven over time. If you sell the house or refinance the mortgage prior to the recapture clause expiring, you may have to pay back some or all of the grant funds received. How do I know which lender to choose for a pre-approval? During your one to one homebuyer education appointment, you will tell your Housing Educator what’s most important. For example, a low interest rate, down payment assistance, or even a lender who caters to borrowers with a lower credit score. Based on what you tell us and our assessment of your mortgage readiness, your Housing Educator will provide you with at least 3 referrals to lenders. You are under no obligation to use them. However, keep in mind that CDLI screens the services of mortgage lenders throughout the year to see who offers the most incentives for 1st time homebuyers. Those are the ones that we have on our list. I'm disabled. Can I purchase a home? Purchasing a home is based on your ability to pay. It’s not based on the source of your income, it’s based on the amount of your income. As long as your income is documented and consistent, in most cases, it can be used to qualify for a mortgage. We say in most cases because ultimately, you’ll have to meet with a mortgage loan officer who will submit your loan application to underwriting. How much money do I need in savings to purchase a home? Typically, you’ll need 3% of the purchase price for down payment and an additional 5% of the purchase price for closing costs. How much income do I need in savings to purchase a home? This depends on other factors, such as the purchase price, down payment, property taxes, homeowner’s insurance, etc. You should also take into consideration how much outstanding debt you owe. For example, if two borrowers have identical income and savings but one borrower has no debt and the other has a car payment, student loans and credit cards, the borrower with the debt will qualify for a lower mortgage amount.

  • Housing Choice Voucher (Landlords) | How CDLI Can Help

NSPIRE Requirements for 2025 NSPIRE REQUIREMENTS .pdf Download PDF • 217KB HCV NSPIRE Most Common Fails .pdf Download PDF • 1.37MB https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6n9bwwMH30 The Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program (previously referred to as Section 8) assists families and individuals to afford decent, safe, and sanitary housing in the private market. The participant is free to choose any housing that meets the requirements of the program, including single-family homes, townhouses, and apartments, and is not limited to units located in subsidized housing projects. Once the tenant and landlord sign a lease, the tenant's family typically contributes 30%-40% of their income towards rent and utilities, and the HCV program pays the remainder directly to the landlord. CDLI is the Local Administrator for the New York State Homes & Community Renewal (HCR) Housing Choice Voucher program on Long Island and select rental properties in Brooklyn, NY. Benefits of Being an HCV Participating Property Owner: You will get timely and dependable payments from the Public Housing Authority (PHA) Participating, compliant landlords will receive timely and dependable housing assistance payments (HAP) each month once the HAP contract and lease are signed. Payments are made directly into the property owner’s account, no worries about lost checks or late payments. Potential for limited unit turnover The average HCV participant remains in a unit for 7-8 years. You will get your full rental payment When an HCV tenant’s income permanently changes, the portion of rent paid by the PHA and the tenant is adjusted to reflect this change. This provides financial protection to landlords in that if an HCV tenant’s income decreases, there is a process for the PHA to pay a larger portion of the rent to the landlord so the landlord continues to receive a full rental payment. You will receive regular inspections Some landlords appreciate the routine inspections because they provide an opportunity to check on the condition of the unit. This can result in identifying maintenance needs that may have otherwise gone unnoticed for some time. Landlords that own or manage properties across wide geographies in particular tend to appreciate the value in having a routine, objective inspection of their rental units. Please note property owners of subsidized units are required to comply with all relevant state and local codes in addition to HQS requirements. If a property owner has units in a municipality where rental permits are required, it is expected that property owners obtain and maintain compliance with all applicable rental permit requirements. CDLI may, upon request, require submission of documentation to demonstrate rental permit or other state/local code compliance. You may request annual reasonable rent increases Compliant landlords may request a rent increase at the annual anniversary of the HAP contract by written notice to the PHA. You can help low-income elderly, disabled, and veteran households, as well as families with children by providing affordable housing More than 50 percent of vouchers serve elderly or non-elderly disabled families. About 45 percent of vouchers assist single-parent families.
