Every figure is worked out from the open listings above and changes as listings open and close. Each program sets its own income limit, often as a share of the area median income (the middle income in the area), so limits differ from listing to listing.

Apply-direct buildings in Utah

Besides the open listings above, Utah has 523 apply-direct buildings. There is no lottery to enter: you call the building (or the local housing office, for public housing) and ask if its waitlist is open. What is an apply-direct building?

We count every building in the state. A building can be in more than one group, so the groups add up to more than 523. The list comes from HUD, the federal housing department (public housing, Section 8, senior and disability buildings, and tax-credit buildings), downloaded October 5, 2026. It does not say whether a waitlist is open, and some waitlists are closed or years long.

Questions about affordable housing in Utah

What kinds of affordable housing listings are open in Utah?

Utah has 2 waitlists open right now. Each listing says whether it is a lottery, a waitlist or first come.

How much does affordable housing cost in Utah?

Homes for sale are posted from $365,000. Rents in income-restricted rentals are usually set by a program formula tied to the middle income in the area (the area median income) instead of the market, so they are often lower than similar homes nearby.

What income do I need to qualify for affordable housing in Utah?

Among the 2 listings in Utah that post an income limit, the most a household of 2 can earn a year ranges from $85,050 to $102,120. Some programs also set a minimum income, and limits are higher for larger households. Both differ from listing to listing. The free qualify check compares your household with the income limit and rules on each open listing.

Can I apply online for affordable housing in Utah?

None of the 5 open listings in Utah that we track has an online application; they use paper, email or in-person steps. Listings here link to hasuhomes.org (2 listings), moabclt.org (2 listings) and affordmoab.com (1 listing). Check each listing for any application fee the program states, and be careful with anyone who asks you to pay to enter a lottery.

When is the next housing deadline in Utah?

None of the open listings in Utah posts a deadline that is still ahead. Waitlists and first come listings stay open until the program closes them, so the listing page is the place to check the latest status.
