How It Works
Three simple steps to never miss an opportunity
We Monitor Housing Connect
Our system automatically checks NYC Housing Connect multiple times per day for newly opened affordable housing lotteries. We track all five boroughs and capture complete details including income requirements, rent amounts, building amenities, and application deadlines.
Automated Monitoring
Real-time checks 24/7
Smart Filtering
Your preferences only
We Match Your Preferences
Each new lottery is automatically filtered against your saved preferences: borough location, minimum number of bedrooms, and income eligibility range. Only listings that match all of your criteria are selected for your personalized email alert.
You Get Clear Email Alerts
When a matching lottery opens, we send you a clear, concise email with everything you need: building address, rent range, income eligibility in actual dollar amounts, application deadline, and a direct link to apply.
Instant Delivery
Clear & actionable
