Back in 2013, Trinity House made headlines when the school received approvals from the city for a rent hike of up to 13 percent, more than three times the standard increase for rent-stabilized units that year. However, units have still remained affordable, and a 750-name waitlist has just opened for studio apartments that range from $432 to $503 a month for one- and two-person households earning between $17,263 and $90,625 a year.

That is a nice range for those who complain that these apartments are only for the poor.

I received a letter in the mail requesting the $200 fee after submitting my application online during the summer for the studio waiting list. I'm number 15 - think I will get called in the next year?

Hi there,

It's been a few years since this thread was posted, did Trinity House ever get in contact with you? They just opened their wait list, I am #38.

Thanks.

That's a fantastic number. Did anyone answer your question? I got a log number in the 50's. I wonder what the wait time is as well. Thanks and congrats.

I only made my application in July so don't really know yet when I'll get called. I'll post back here when I hear from Maxwell Cates, Inc.

Default wait list

I got a letter. My log number is in the 300s. So how many years am I looking at?

I've called Maxwell Kates and left a message on their general mailbox, but no call back either. Does anyone have the name and email address or phone number of an agent at Maxwell Kates? I feel like they've taken my money and ran! Please help!

Maxwell-Cates NEVER gets back to you.

Congrats on a low log number, I'm about 23 people after you. Have you heard back from Trinity House at all? I'm going to call tomorrow and see what number they are up to on the waiting list. Best of luck

Default long wait

I was told by Maxwell Kates that the wait can be from 5-10 years. That's a ridiculously long range. I guess they just don't know. My issue is why bother to open up the waiting list if the list is already years long???

This tells you what number they are up to on most Mitchell Lama waiting lists. I hope this helps.
