OMAHA OHA TWENTY ONE TWO PAGE PROPERTY DIRECTORY — OHA's two-page directory https://ohauthority.org/properties/ and https://ohauthority.org/properties/?sf_paged=2 lists 21 named records: 15 under public-housing categories (including four senior-designated towers), one HIO affordable/LIHTC building and one OHA market-rate multi-site group. Twelve have single numbered residence addresses; nine give only an intersection, an address pair, an area or scattered sites, so they are described as unpinned groups rather than put at a guessed street point. Farnam's numbered street is supported but the official ZIP 68132 conflicts with independent listings of 68102; its ZIP is left unassigned. OHA's https://ohauthority.org/properties/ lists 21 directory results across https://ohauthority.org/properties/?sf_paged=2, reviewed September 29, 2026. Its properties page describes smoke-free, pet-friendly properties, 24-hour emergency maintenance and resident services; specific amenities below are attributed to each detail page. The HRA central office at 1823 Harney Street is for application help and is not an extra residential property. OHA's https://ohauthority.org/public-housing/apply-for-housing/ and https://ohauthority.org/public-housing/ say its public-housing waiting list, effective January 1, 2025, is open ONLY for one-bedroom apartments in senior towers to applicants aged 62+; do not advertise the other public-housing communities as accepting new applications. The four senior-designated buildings also describe service eligibility for near-elderly ages 50–61, but that does not override the narrower current application intake. Existing unit-size lists are not vacancies. The current-looking https://ohauthority.org/public-housing/eligibility-requirements/ lists income/citizenship/debt rules, prior OHA eviction and reapplication windows, permanent methamphetamine-on-federally-assisted-property and lifetime sex-offender-registry exclusions, and a review of other criminal records from the past five years by type/time; none determines an individual's outcome. Income limits on that page are explicitly updated April 2025, not current quotes. The public-housing application portal is https://myportal.ohauthority.org/; call 402-444-6900 ext. 2285 or 2215 to confirm current intake. The affordable program at https://ohauthority.org/properties/affordable/apply-for-affordable-housing/ accepts digital, in-person and mailed applications; its September 2025 fillable LIHTC PDF can be emailed with subject “Application for LIHTC Housing” to application@ohauthority.org. Household income and student rules apply; it lists an income floor of three times rent except for voucher holders and April 2025 maximum incomes requiring current confirmation. Farnam's listed rent and application process do not prove a vacancy or approval after screening. Call OHA for written property-specific conviction rules. The Villas North market-rate application at https://ohauthority.org/properties/market-rate/apply-for-market-rate-housing/ accepts a fillable PDF emailed with subject “Application for Market Rate Housing” to application@ohauthority.org, as well as in-person or mailed applications. Its three-times-rent income rule does not apply to voucher holders. OHA says applications undergo a criminal-background check and may remain on a waitlist; it provides no current vacancy or guaranteed screening approval here.

OHA detail says 24 single-family homes, without per-home bedroom mix. No utility inclusion stated on the detail page. Garage, washer/dryer hookups and patio or deck. Despite the “Affordable Homes” name, this group is linked from OHA's public-housing houses/duplexes directory; its “24 homes available” text is not a dated notice of 24 current vacancies.

Controlled entry, cameras, elevator, bus access, parking, laundry, community room/free Wi-Fi and patio; across from Hanscom Park.

Current public-housing intake https://ohauthority.org/public-housing/apply-for-housing/. The OHA senior-housing page https://ohauthority.org/properties/public-housing/senior-housing/ describes age 62+ and near-elderly 50–61 designation and flat or income-based rent, but https://ohauthority.org/public-housing/apply-for-housing/ limits NEW public-housing waitlist intake to one-bedroom senior-tower applicants aged 62+. The directory's “Available Unit Sizes” describes floor plans, not an advertised opening. OHA's Keystone Crown Creek table uses “Units Available” beside 19 two-bedroom and 18 three-bedroom rows without a dated vacancy notice; North Omaha Affordable Homes likewise calls 24 homes “available” without individual homes or current vacancies. Call to verify before advertising either. Scattered-site and row-house references are group descriptions, not one geocodable residential building. The HIO affordable application is separate from OHA public-housing intake, and Villas North has a separate market-rate application with explicit voucher acceptance. OHA office 1823 Harney St, Omaha NE 68102: application help only, not a residence. Source https://ohauthority.org/properties/public-housing/houses-duplexes/.
