Thank you brother. I tried this decades ago, twice in fact, and both times it eventually happened that they said the list had been "lost" and then the list had "burned up in a fire". Yeah, right. Now you're givin' me new hope, since at 78 on a fixed income I might just qualify and get lucky. Will let you know how it goes.
I applied for a lottery apartment in a Manhattan building the first week of June. I got an email asking me to submit a whole bunch of documents within the next five days. I did not get a log number. The only thing that I could see is the potential apartment number and how much the rent will be. in the email says that submitting these documents in no way gave me an apartment but I do think it’s a good sign. I really hope so because this will be for my nine month old daughter and God bless you. I’m so happy for you.
Wow... such a quick turn around is amazing! I think it's gonna work out for you.. especially since you have a child. Sending positive energy your way~!
Congratulations 🎉 You are a true example of a real New York City success story 👏👏👏 Your determination, faith and positive attitude are such an inspiration! I am so happy for you 😁 I will purchase something for your new apartment. Sending you positive energy and wish you continued success!
😂 Lawd you aint never lied, The Process😳! Same happened to us, when we walked across the Brooklyn Bridge to Manhattan. We said the same thing, our dream to live in DUMBO/Brooklyn Bridge Park. Plus everything brand new, utilities included, gym, laundry, 24 hour security. Rent cheaper than the 100+ year old house we rented for 9 years.🙏🏽All Praises, We Got The Call🗽❤️💃🏽🍸Salute To Your New Place As Well !!
Great Advice. We got in from the BX back home in Brooklyn Bridge/Manhattan Bridge & NYC Skyline views❤. Applied for years. Once you get it in, it seems other building's you applied to start calling. Don't give up applicants!
I just got a response today. I have 2 weeks to send in my documents. I have them all ready today. My number is 420. I hope I get it. I waited 2 and a half years to get an email 09/26/24 UPDATE: I didn't get it. All my docs were good, but someone with a lower number than mine got it. Back to waiting
What’s up brother, I have a question. Today I’m viewing two units, a studio and one bedroom. If everything goes well how long after will I have to wait to move in? Thank you in advance.
I really can guarantee you if you go into a apprenticeship with a job that's higher paid, they are assured that on the long run you can pay the apartment, b) that you are solution oriented They check out your whole background. If you can show them that you are a member of society and you work for a better life - they will appreciate it. Trust me.
@TravelWithSilent depends on your income. I never see any apartments in my salary range that are under 130% AMI and NYC skews the AMI by including Westchester. 80-100k Salary in NYC isn't a lot but for lottery studios the rents i see are 2-3k. If I made $50k or less there are decent lottery deals.
@@mikesthetics1214 I’m not sure… submitting an application on the housing website is a different thing from actually getting an email saying you were chosen to get an apartment or interview process
I am so happy for you 🎉🎉🎉 congratulation your dream come true. Have a question: I applied the application, and now the status is the 'wait list'. I have to do something ooor just wait😊🙈
hi, I'm glad for your happiness, living in Manhattan is truly a miracle, may I ask perhaps you know if a married couple can apply from their accounts for the same apartment?
I been in NYC since March 2024. I have a apartment for City Felps Voucher pending but just got asked for a viewing on housing connect tomorow with me luck man i need to move from this shelter! One way or another im outie 5000!
hey. if i win this lottery and my incone must be aprox 55k, my income from my new job 55k but ive alredy been working 6 month and my old income from past year 16k, can i give them something like approve from my new job that my sallary more then i had. what do u think?
Are good work man thanks for all the info. May I suggest one thing that’s not related. You should change your TH-cam name to travel with silence and not travel with silent, that way it’s more proper with better grammar.
God opened that door, not manifesting. Jesus loves you, He’s your ultimate provider. I believe as you trust Him, you’ll get all your provisions. Congratulations 🎊🎉 💐
NICE .... I am not a spiritual person and I don't necessarily know that I believe in divine manifestation. I am someone who believes that all you can do really in life is put your best foot forward and let the chips fall where they may. However I'm glad that the stars aligned and the apartment that you desire you got it. One of the reasons why I do not believe that some people are blessed and others are not is because it would make God same as though he plays favorites by granting you something that thousands of other people desired as well so in an effort not to do that I just believe sometimes we just get lucky and are in the right place at the right time. Think about it and let me know if that doesn't make sense to you.
I respect your view on it.. but I don't believe in getting "lucky". There's no such thing as luck, when you put in work towards whatever it is you want. "Desiring" something is not enough to get "granted" to you. But that's MY belief.. lol
I’ve tried this over the years. Never been successful. I use to make less as a single young man and it was never less enough. I’m talking about missing the mark by 1 to 2 thousand dollars per year. I’ve even not done any overtime for one full year to reduce my income and have still been 1 thousand dollars too much. I should have faked an injury or something to reduce my income even more but I was always too honest to do such things. I’ve come to the conclusion that you have to either be dirt poor or be a woman that misses countless days per year in order to lower yearly income in order to qualify for these. Forget it now. I make way too much money to even come close to qualifying. I would have to produce 5 kids and have a wife that doesn’t work to come close to it. At 53, I don’t think I could do that anymore. Who knows, maybe if I loose my job and get so disabled that I could no longer work and loose my house, then I could qualify. But until then, nope.
Sir, don’t loose faith, I just read your comment you wrote to “Silent”. Read my comment that I wrote to “Silent”. I was in my 50’s when I first started applying back in 2002. I am now 75years old.( however, I must say that I look good for my age). Times are hard for everyone, stay strong and pray. God bless you.

Do you mind sharing what your rent is? Can you stay there as long as you want? Will the rent ever be raised. Your home is so beautiful! Enjoy!
@@deborahgarvin8818No one would say it, however, it's only a yearly lease and they do annual income checkups
@@ShermSuite if they ask you for document you have a log #
@@ShermSuite I hope it works out in your favor! 🙏

Congrats man. Super happy for you!
thank you!
This is so dope!! You're the coolest
I have been waiting for an apartment for at least 8yrs now.. Started with the old housing connect site 😞🙄
Happy for anyone who gets in. If you aren't a single Mom/parent making less than 60k then get ready to pay like 2-3k for those lottery studios.
@@212og that’s not true. I am solo and I do not pay 2-3k

Facts it goes according to ur income !!❤
Won in 2015 for an apartment in Harlem. Back then it was about 2Kish. I said ✌🏾 NYC!
Wow.. that's alot!
Good morning, how long did it take under review for HDP to approve your application?
@@mikesthetics1214 hello.. I talk all about how long (from start to finish) in this video lol
@ Okay, today my application changed from ‘Under Review’ to ‘Review Complete.’ Does that mean I got approved?
@@mikesthetics1214 I’m not sure… submitting an application on the housing website is a different thing from actually getting an email saying you were chosen to get an apartment or interview process
Did you move back to NY from Puerto Rico?
Congratulations 🎉 your view is immaculate 😊
