Looking for Housing?

Rental information

Anyone looking for rental units in the Chinatown neighborhood may be referred to the Oak Terrace Management Offices, also located at 888 Washington Street. They also may be assisted at the Asian American Civic Association: 200 Tremont Street.

ACDC does have an informational binder listing apartment sites in the Chinatown vicinity. Visitors are welcome to take down information from these books.




Home Buying Information

As part of our First-time Homebuyers Program, we provide Cantonese and Mandarin-language counseling and homebuying workshops to assist families in the process of purchasing their first home. We also provide translated copies of the applications for selected developments in the Boston area as a variety of informational materials.

Because opportunities for affordable housing often come up very quickly, we advise prospective homebuyers to prepare in advance for the application process. What you need to apply for affordable homeownership opportunities through local CDCs (like the Asian Community Development Corporation) and City Agencies is the following:

  • Income verification such as a recent pay stub for each applicable household member (proving that your income fits within a certain bracket)
  • Tax Return(s) for the past years, if available
  • Evidence that you have completed or intend to complete a City of Boston-approved Homebuyer Class
  • A Pre-approval Letter for a mortgage from a lending institution
  • A completed and signed application from the respective agency that is selling the unit
