Affordable unit search and placement
Search available rental listings that meet voucher payment standards, income-based eligibility requirements, and client household size. Filter by transit access, school quality, and neighborhood safety for placements that set clients up for long-term stability.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can these tools search specifically for Section 8 or HCV-accepting rentals?
Real Estate Data includes listing fields for voucher acceptance where landlords have indicated this in listings. Search results can be filtered by price range matching payment standards, and Deep Research can identify specific landlords and programs in a given area. Direct landlord outreach via Lead Finder is often the most effective approach for finding willing participants.
How do I use these tools to research LIHTC properties with current vacancies?
Deep Research can find LIHTC property contacts, waiting list status, and vacancy announcements for specific counties or zip codes. Real Estate Data covers some affordable housing listings. For comprehensive local coverage, combine these with contacts from your local Housing Finance Agency.
Can I use Deep Research to stay current on program funding changes and application windows?
Yes. Deep Research searches live sources including government announcements, housing authority websites, and news, so it can identify newly opened application windows, ERAP funding announcements, and program deadline changes as they are published.
Are the neighborhood crime statistics reliable for placement decisions?
Crime Stats pulls from official law enforcement data sources (FBI UCR, UK Police API, etc.) and provides comparative context — such as how a neighborhood compares to the city average. Use it as one input alongside school data, walkability, and transit access rather than as a standalone filter.
Can these tools help document placements and case notes?
Content Repurposer can help draft case notes, intake summaries, and referral letters in a consistent format. It can also generate plain-language materials explaining programs to clients. For formal case management documentation, use your organization's case management system.
