Income and Rent Limits

Housing Tax Credit, Tax Exempt Bond, HOME, Neighborhood Stabilization and Housing Trust Fund rental development programs

2013 Project Income and Rent Tool (XLS)
This tool will identify maximum income and rent limits for TDHCA administered properties participating in the Housing Tax Credit, Tax Exempt Bond, HOME, Neighborhood Stabilization Program and Housing Trust Fund rental development programs only. The tool incorporates the FY 2013 Multifamily Tax Subsidy Income Limits published by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for the HTC and Tax Exempt Bond programs released on December 4, 2012 and the for Neighborhood Stabilization Program released on December 11, 2012. The Housing Trust Fund rental program uses the HTC Income and Rent limits. The Community Planning and Development (CPD) section of HUD released the 2013 HOME Program Income Limits on February 14, 2013 to be effective March 15, 2013. The new income limits have been incorporated into the tool.  However, until March 15, 2013, please continue to use the 2012 HOME Program Income Limits. Those limits are still available in the 2012 Project Income and Rent Tool on the archive page.  CPD has not released the 2013 HOME Program Rent Limits. Therefore, this tool still produces the 2012 rent limits effective February 9, 2012.

These income and rent limits were produced using data released by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and reflect the changes made to income limits through the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (rural limits, hold harmless etc.). Failure to enter the accurate project specific data will result in erroneous data.

The Department held a webinar December 9, 2011 to discuss how to properly use the Income and Rent Tool and address new developments with the FY2012 Income Limits released by HUD. Visit the Compliance Presentations page to view the webinar.
