Waiting List/Application Process

Berks County Housing Authority

Please be aware after speaking with our software company, we were informed that the preference point we give for applicants who are in unsubsidized housing, was not originally added into the system when everyone applied for the list in June 2023. The unsubsidized preference point was recently updated and added for those applicants who identify as living in unsubsidized housing. Due to this update, waitlist positions have increased for those with lower or no preference points. This may have caused several applicants to jump high numbers on the waiting list. The waiting list is always changing and your placement number may change periodically due to changes in other applicants preference points and when applicants are removed from the list. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.
