  • Generating detailed compliance audit reporting;
  • Storing utility allowances for each property;
  • Defining multiple set-asides by property or building and for fixed or floating units;
  • Verifying income eligibility of applicants;
  • Monitoring the 140% and 170% income rules;
  • Generating alerts to guide compliance with next available unit and student rules.

LIHTC Tenant Income Certification

 

Define Multiple Income Layers (set asides)

Any number of income layers or set-asides can be defined for a building or property. This provides the flexibility needed to track multiple subsidy programs for any property with one application.

Compliance engine

Bostonpost Property Manager® ensures compliance with LIHTC set-asides and other defined subsidy programs by auditing user selections and actions. Move-ins, transfers, household member changes, and income changes are reviewed by the Compliance Engine, and diagnostics are returned to the user. If any compliance tests fail, the action initiated by the user cannot be completed.
