What if I can't afford housing in NYC?
Please refer to the Resources section of my website as well as my information on what to do if your rental applications keep getting rejected. You can also read an article I wrote on the topic.
I also suggest:
Section 8 (housing Vouchers)
Section 8 Eligibility
*Please note that it is illegal to discriminate against someone based on their source of income. These means that you shouldn't need to ask your agent if they accept vouchers. They must. If they don't, they're committing a serious breech of fair housing law.
