There are no income limits for the buyers (in a majority of the homes), nor are there any income or price limits for any rental apartments.
Partnership for New Homes
The Dept. of Housing Preservation and Development works with the State of New York and the New York City Housing Partnership to create new homes throughout the City for families earning between $32,000 and $75,000 a year. The program produces condominiums, single-family town houses and two- and three-family homes.
