Chinook

These are FNHS's descriptions of a housing group, not a confirmed vacant apartment or an offer. Approval after application and background review is not guaranteed.

Property details

Housing type and count
Four-plex: one one-bedroom and three two-bedroom homes
Bedrooms
1 and 2
  • FNHS describes each unit as accessible, with an elevator to the upper floor.
  • Each unit has a washer and dryer. The amenity summary says “washer/dryer hookups: No,” consistent with machines already being provided.
  • Tenants pay rent; the owner covers utilities.

Eligibility and location cautions

Household income at or below 50% or 60% of area median income, depending on the unit; at least one household member must have a disability or be age 62 or older. Annual income certification is required.

The property page provides no numbered residential address, rent amount or verified opening. Ask FNHS which accessibility features and income category apply to a particular unit.

The rental landing page says the one-bedroom waitlist is closed. The current form has a Chinook preference for two- or three-bedroom requests; it does not confirm an available Chinook unit.

Waitlists and screening

FNHS says its one-bedroom waitlist is closed and not taking new applications. Its current online pre-application offers two- and three-bedroom preferences; that does not confirm a vacancy or that every individual site is accepting applicants. FNHS says it uses a rental-history and background pre-screen. The form asks whether anyone in the household has been charged with a felony; the published sources do not promise acceptance or specify an automatic result for a particular record. Ask FNHS for its current written criteria.

Call 907-451-7230 or email properties@fnhs.org. FNHS lists 1427 Gillam Way as its office, not a verified residential location for any of these groups.
