Thank you for your patience and understanding in recent weeks as we’ve made adjustments to our lottery process for Vineyard View Apartments based on community feedback. At Conifer, we fully recognize and respect the challenges involved with securing high-quality, affordable housing, and are deeply sorry for any added stress or frustrations experienced as a result of these changes.
Based on the feedback received, we conducted a prompt and thorough review of all aspects of our application process and are pleased to announce the Vineyard View Apartments virtual lottery has been rescheduled for Tuesday, September 8, 2020 at 11 am. It can be viewed live at that time on Conifer Realty’s Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/coniferrealty.
The application submission period has been reopened for two weeks beginning Monday August 17th through Sunday, August 30th to allow all interested applicants ample time to apply. Included below are detailed guidelines on the application submission process. All prior lottery applicants who previously submitted their applications directly to Vineyard View will be automatically eligible and included in the rescheduled lottery, with no additional action required. Each will be notified by either email, telephone or letter via USPS to confirm both the new lottery date and their continued participation.
The lottery establishes the required sequence in which we must process applicants for program eligibility, potential occupancy and affordable housing income for Vineyard View. All submitted applications will be drawn in the lottery to establish the sequence for occupancy processing and waitlist. In the event we initially fill Vineyard View to full occupancy before reaching an individual’s application, the applicant automatically retains his or her position on our waitlist for future apartment availability.
At Conifer, we continuously strive to do what we do better, as we fulfill our mission to bring high quality, affordable housing to the communities we serve. We deeply regret any stress or disappointment experienced by applicants due to the recent changes to our Vineyard View Apartments lottery process. We look forward to providing a better lottery experience moving forward and appreciate your patience and understanding as we’ve made improvements based on community feedback. Should you have any questions regarding the Vineyard View lottery process, please contact Kelly Shields at (631) 315-9677 or by email at vineyardview@coniferllc.com.
Sincerely,
Joan Hoover,
President, Conifer Realty
