I've been looking into affordable housing via housing connect and the only image I've seen across the internet is just the exterior of the buildings.

Do they have any pictures of the inside of these buildings? Even for the lotteries that are complete? I'm assuming no, but it would be nice to get a full view of the apartments before hand just to see what it looks like and the layout.

There are a few for which you can find interior shots (The Pacific Park stuff, for instance), but for the most part you really can't.

When I use to be on the grind applying I have never seen interior pictures, and floor plans were almost non existent. Its a hit and a miss, and the apartment they show you sometimes is not the apartment you get so the layout is not always exact.

In some cases, the affordable apartments have the same layouts as the market rate ones. Maybe the finishes are different. In those cases, you can usually look on Streeteasy and see that market apartments at least.

A lot of them aren't built at the time the lottery launches--obviously a problem.

The best interior photos are usually taken by forum people further along in the process!
