The one I’m waiting on is about $1870 so that’s $3,740 up front - not bad for a one bedroom. The studio is less but not by much.

Hi everyone,

I've been on this board on and off over the last NINE MONTHS! LOL.
I just want to say that after nine months of being on this emotional roller coaster, our family of 4 finally got approved for a 3 bedroom last week. I persisted and persisted and didn't leave the BG folks alone until our application reached HDC, and of course once it reached HDC in early October, they got backlogged with lower log number applications and put ours on hold for a month. It was pure agony. But man when we finally got THE CALL it felt like we had truly overcome a drawn out traumatic experience.

Marshabrady I really think you still have a good chance. We also had a lot of setbacks and had to repeal twice with BG. It just took a lot of effort to see this through. You guys still have a shot. Keep the hope alive.

Good luck everyone!
