The Metropolitan Development and Housing Agency (MDHA) will be accepting online-only applications for a Project-Based Voucher (PBV) property on a first-come, first-served basis from noon Tuesday, May 5, to 3 p.m. Friday, May 8.

Located at 3711 Dickerson Pike in Nashville, Buffalo Trail Apartments is a new multi-family development with two- and three-bedroom apartments. Amenities include a full appliance package, washer and dryer connections, clubhouse, swimming pool, community room, business center and fitness center. Leasing is expected to begin in September 2020.

Applications for the waiting list will be available online only at www.nashville-mdha.org (click on the button that says Apply for Affordable Housing) beginning at noon Tuesday May 5, and can be submitted online 24 hours a day during the waiting list period. The application is simple and takes less than five minutes to complete.

Applicants will need to register a new username and password and have a valid email address. Once an application is submitted, applicants will receive an email confirming that the application was submitted successfully. Within 30 days, applicants will receive a follow-up email confirming whether the application has been accepted and placed on the waiting list, or it has been rejected.

Similar to the Tenant-Based Voucher Program, the PBV Program provides low- and moderate-income households with monthly rental assistance. However, PBV assistance is tied to particular units rather than to the family. Eligible families only receive assistance while living in the PBV unit.
