About this resource: Housing Navigation Services provides a list of housing vacancies in Dane County. The list is updated weekly, each list is organized according to unit size, rent and location. By compiling this information, these vacancy lists empower those in search of housing to focus their energy on the vital next step in their search for a new home: Contacting the landlord, rental agency, or management company in charge of renting that property.
This resource should be used for people who have enough income to earn around 2.5-3 times the rent price listed. If people are on a fixed income (most often this is disability or retirement income) and need to have low rent housing then you should work through the subsidized housing resource listed below.
Section 42 Housing List - June 2023
This is a list of "Less Expensive Housing Options." The properties listed have both market rate apartments and some apartments set aside with monthly rents that are less than market rate or "less expensive" than the going rate.
This is not subsidized housing. These properties have household income restrictions and rental cost limits. Please visit here for more information on those limits. This list does not guarantee vacancies. There may be a waiting list or waiting time until a vacancy opens for the "less expensive units" in these properties.
When contacting these properties, you will need to ask for information on Section 42 or tax credit units. For additional housing resources, please visit the Dane County Homeless Services Consortium Low Income Housing & Housing Vacancy Lists.
