The only difference is that some people contacted may have already toured the building. But as part of the lottery selection process, you still will have to come tour actual units that you are being considered for. These tours don't really mean anything, which is why some people don't really see the point of them.

I second this! If I get invited I would go to entertain my curiosity despite whether or not I will take it later

I asked about an opportunity to tour as well. There are literally no appointments available .

Completely agree! I get my hopes up just from looking online so a tour won’t make much of a difference lol. I’d much rather have a look at a lottery unit before I even submit documentation, to be honest. I’ve seen a couple apartments that were really small and unlivable for my family so I’m glad I didn’t have to go through the whole process just see an apartment that really wouldn’t work at all.
