## Who FWHS Is

Fort Worth Housing Solutions (FWHS) is the local Public Housing Authority. They run:

-   Public housing across Tarrant County
-   Housing Choice Voucher program
-   Mixed-finance developments with LIHTC or other funding
-   Various supportive and homeownership programs

## Community Types in the Portfolio

**Public housing**: rent set as ~30% of adjusted gross income. Government-owned or PHA-owned.

**Mixed-income developments**: newer communities with subsidized, LIHTC-restricted, and market-rate units in the same building.

**RAD-converted communities**: former public housing under project-based Section 8 or LIHTC financing.

## How to Apply

Direct application through FWHS. Waitlists open with announced windows. Preferences (veteran, disability, elderly, homelessness, local resident) can move you up.

We recommend parallel LIHTC applications to non-FWHS properties for faster placement.
