I have applied to a few ML listings and they have disappeared off the webpage when the lottery closed. I have never seen a log# for ML on their housing connect page, unlike the rental housing connect page which has all my applications going back about two years. Is it just me? Weird.

That's because you were not one of the 250 selected for the co-op. Only those who were selected will have the ML listing still on the webpage. If you get selected, your log # + application will be mailed to you and it won't appear on the website until after the application deadline.

You just said two contradictory things.

"Only those who were selected will have the ML listing still on the webpage."

And then in the next sentence:

"If you get selected, your log # + application will be mailed to you and it won't appear on the website until after the application deadline."

By the way, the number not appearing if you're not selected is not necessarily true. I got selected for Pratt Towers and everything is still gone despite having gotten a letter in the mail and a log number.

I applied to Pratt Towers and it disappeared for me too! Glad to know that even though it was taken down, they still considered people who applied though the site! I was beginning to think the ML Housing connect site didn't work.

Best of luck! I hope I get in at EMP. I don't have kids now, nor want kids, but the way the three bedroom lotteries go (with how slow they are) I might have 2 by the time I get hypothetically called. lol

I called the management office back in February and she said she has 2 units, but only 1 ready to go now.
Not sure if that has changed.
She also said It may be about a 2 year wait list to get to my number 1XX.
Also the purchase price for the unit is around 100K.. not sure if that already includes any surcharges etc

Aren't you the one who wants to put your parents on your tax returns even though they don't live with you just to scam the system and get the three bedroom you are NOT ENTITLED TO? Shame on you. From reading your posts it appears you came to the U.S. five years ago yet you already know how to game the system. If you don't qualify by the time they call you you shouldn't be scamming.

Disgusting.

Do you know if they will assign people on the waiting list an updated number if people
don’t turn in their application and application fee?

For example my log is 1XX
Let’s say 50 people don’t turn in their application and fee.
Will EMP then mail letters with new numbers... meaning my new wait number is bumped up
minus the 50 people that didn’t apply��������

I called them too, they have only and will go first to internal list(probably people that live in and applied for upgrade).
That’s strange that she told you 2 years to 1##, if they have only 1 how it’s possible!?
