When you are done selecting criteria, click Submit Inventory Search to obtain your results. A search results page will appear showing a summary of your results at the top of the page and a list of the individual properties that match your results below.

Search results can be summarized by Unit Count Summary, Funding Summary or Unit Counts by Target AMI Level.

Unit Count Summary

The number of units listed for each property is representative of all affordable units participating in all programs. See the individual property details screen for more information about the number of affordable units.

Funding Summary

The funding programs listed for each property represent all of the funding programs for each property and are not limited to the program(s) selected. See the individual property details screen for more information about the funding program(s).

Unit Counts by AMI Level

The criteria you select will create lists of properties meeting your criteria. However, the summary of the unit counts by target AMI level and unit counts for each property represent all of the information that is currently available for the properties matching your criteria. In the event that the AMI level information is not available for a specific property, the unit counts by target AMI level will be unspecified for that property.

To start a new search, click Reset Form on the main page. This will clear out all search criteria entries and selections.

Enter the name OR address of a specific property in the text box. You can search using a partial or complete property name or address. If a specific address you enter does not yield any results, we recommend using a partial address (i.e. “123” or “Main”).

Use the following abbreviations when searching for addresses:

• Avenue = Ave
• Boulevard = Blvd
• Court = Ct
• Lane = Ln
• Street = St
• First = 1st; Second = 2nd; Third = 3rd; Fourth = 4th; etc.

For example: Park Avenue Apartments, located at 1480 Park Ave can be found by entering:

• "Park," "Park Ave," or "Park Avenue Apts"
-or-
• "1480 Park," "Park Ave," or "1480 Park Ave"

Alternate Names

A property may also have other names associated with it. Any entry here will search for all names associated with that property in the Inventory.

For example: Glendale Apartments has also been known as Pine Tree Park; therefore, searching for "Park" will include Glendale Apartments in the search results.

The alternate names will appear in the search results and property details page in the aka and Alternate Names fields respectively.

Many programs have Area Median Income (AMI) requirements. When a household moves into a unit or property participating in a program, the household must not have an income that exceeds a certain percentage of the AMI.

Target AMI is not directly tied to program requirements, but indicates the marketed AMI affordability level of the unit. For example, a unit could have program restrictions that require a household to have an income less than or equal to 80% AMI to live in the unit, but the rent amount would be affordable to a household with an income less than or equal to 30% AMI. Therefore, the Target AMI for this unit is considered to be less than or equal to 30% AMI when searched in the Inventory.

Selecting one or more Target Area Median Income (AMI) levels will limit the search results by displaying only properties reported to have the target AMI you specified. However, the report summary information will not be restricted to the AMI levels you specified. Here are the results you can expect:
