Who can apply

This program serves low-income families and individuals who meet HUD income limits for the Texas area (generally at or below 50% of area median income; many buildings prioritize 30%).

How to apply

1. Call the building at 214-484-8705 (managed by Monroe Group, Ltd.) and ask whether the waiting list is open and how to get an application.
2. Most buildings keep their own waiting list — this is separate from the Dallas Housing Authority (DHA, Housing Solutions for North Texas) Section 8 voucher list.
3. Submit proof of income, ID for every household member, and Social Security numbers where available.
4. When your name comes up, the management office verifies eligibility and offers a unit.

Your rights

Texas has no statewide source-of-income protection, and Texas Local Government Code § 250.007 (2015) prohibits Texas cities from adopting ordinances that require landlords to accept Housing Choice Vouchers. Private landlord participation in the voucher program is voluntary
