Local housing resources

Municipal Housing Agency of Council Bluffs (MHACB), Participating Properties, updated January 22, 2026: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/60f879bca69cc8571a013dac/t/69776d26f1467c5e3064bcf3/1769434406993/Participating+Properties.pdf. The agency says listed complexes work with it and may have rentals, but it cannot guarantee available units. Ask each provider about current units, voucher participation, applications and screening. The sheet also suggests rental-search resources: https://hotpads.com/, https://iowahousingsearch.org/, and the HUD Resource Locator at https://resources.hud.gov/. It links to local property-manager websites as separate search resources, not as verified apartment or vacancy records: Kouri Management https://www.kourimanagement.com/; Pillar Property Management https://www.pillarpropmgmt.com/; and Crowl Property Management https://www.crowlpropertymanagement.com/. Confirm all details directly.

How we verify this information
