I still can't figure out how it works. I received a second letter to view studios back in Oct and I was no. 12th on the list. I accepted both apartments I saw but I received a letter in Nov telling me both studios were taken. One of the the studios I viewed had a HUGE balcony and the price was 16K more. Anyway, I haven't received any more letter after that. But judging from the threads here, no. 16th got a letter to view two studios in Dec...so does it mean I was skipped? I hope I didn't miss any letters....just called the management office and I was told to send an email. I also misplaced my computer no. so let's hope I will get a response soon :'(
Good luck everyone!
what is your preference? was it for balcony only? i am for either balcony or none. and the two studios i viewed had no balconies when i got my letter in dec.
keep us updated with what happened. i am curious as well..
They are still calling people, I was just emailed an invite for an interview, my log # was 16,xxx, no preference. It is very tempting because that building looks fantastic but the 120% studio is almost $150 over my monthly max as far as rent, even though I am near the top of the bracket, so I think I am going to have to pass. Looks like another apartment in Brooklyn is going to come through for me anyway.

good luck to you too
Thanks for the response elee610.
Oh, so maybe that's why. I don't remember putting in a preference but all the studios I viewed so far had a balcony. In fact, the last one had a balcony so big it was listed as "Terrace" in the letter and counted as half a room, lol.
Still hoping but I'm afraid by the time I get called in (if I get called in) I will no longer qualify based on income. I'm trying to stay positive though. Hope you're hanging in there too.
Hey Lynn13,
I see that they have started contacted the CB preference.
Hopefully they will get to us soon.
Do you have any news ?
I was just called for an interview for this building! i have cb with log in 30xxx. I'm curious how long the process will be from interview to lease signing. Anyone have experience with this?

It's anyone's guess really, but I was selected and finally accepted to another BG lottery. I was originally interviewed in December 2016 and ultimately signed a lease in August 2017. I had a really low lottery number with CB preference and it still took that long.
What size unit are you going for -- studio, one bedroom, two bedroom ?
Are most people on this thread going for the 40%, 60%, or 130% AMI?
