TACOMA THA SIXTEEN-PROPERTY DIRECTORY REVIEW — THA https://www.tacomahousing.org/properties/ reviewed September 30, 2026: 16 distinct detail records, 15 located in Tacoma and one, Bergerson Terrace, whose official detail page lists University Place. University Place records: Bergerson Terrace (5305 South Orchard Street, University Place). These are DIRECTORY CARDS, not vacant apartments. THA's “Now Leasing” market-rate introduction is not proof that every property or floor-plan variant is open for direct leasing. Its separate continuously open affordable-property waitlist is also not a current vacancy list. Bergerson Terrace’s teaser describes South Tacoma, but its detail-page address explicitly says University Place. The property has two- and three-bedroom floor plans; THA does not publish a verified unit inventory or current vacancy on that page. THA https://www.tacomahousing.org/housing/ distinguishes affordable THA-owned homes, privately rented voucher homes and income-restricted THA market-rate units. Its https://www.tacomahousing.org/housing/waitlist/ says affordable-unit and voucher waitlists are open continuously via https://www.tacomahousing.org/applicant-login/; https://www.tacomahousing.org/housing/waitlist/waitlist-details/ defines a separate senior/disabled list and quarterly “Save My Spot” check-ins before January/April/July/October 25. A waitlist opening is not a unit opening. THA lists (253) 207-4400 for questions. No property-specific felony approval has been established from these sources; ask for current screening and intake rules. THA's https://www.tacomahousing.org/housing/ separately lists North Highland Court, Highland Crest and Outrigger market-rate examples; these are NOT extra records in the 16-card directory.
