I wonder what is taking them so long. On some of these threads people are saying HPD approval takes only 3-5 business days but it doesn't seem like the case for this spot. What AMI are you in? I know when they reached out to me there were only 80% AMI studios left and 130% Everything was left.

Oh wow did they let you look at any other units or could you only look at the one assigned???

I currently live with 4 roommates in a tiny room with no closet paying almost the same as the 80% AMI studios. I would rather have the whole place to myself you know, own bathroom and kitchen and a closet.. But I get it especially coming from a 1 bedroom definitely downsizing! but thats unfortunate I hope you win another one soon!

Lol good luck! I think you'll love the apartment.. its small but nice. The one I saw had a balcony... but the balcony was connected to the common outside area for everyone in the building. I'm rejecting this apartment. I was so happy I was picked but now I have to reject my application after all this nonsense. :'(. Hopefully your application get approve. I saw two apartments.
