Housing guidance with official sources

# How we research and maintain housing information

Understand what has been checked, what updates automatically and what must still be verified with a provider.

Editorial review: October 11, 2026. Confirm application status and unit details with the provider.

## Research should help you make a decision

We start with official agency, government and regulator sources for program rules and application routes. City guides explain local differences and link the source next to each statement.

## Three different kinds of information

- Editorial guidance: reviewed against the linked sources on the displayed review date. It is not a legal determination for an individual household.

- Imported data: property records and published income limits with their own source and retrieval dates. A data refresh does not mean the editorial text was newly reviewed.

- Dated openings: an official notice with a date can set a named application window. It does not guarantee selection or a vacant unit for every reader.

## What a property listing doesn’t tell you

We have not called every directory property. Historical records can lag a name, manager, program or restriction change. A listing does not verify rent, condition, availability, screening policy or our referral relationship. Confirm those with the current provider before applying or paying.

## How updates are handled

Our data workflow checks official sources on a schedule and checks imported data before it goes live. Dated property notices get a review and an expiry date. If a check fails, we look at it before anything on the site changes. The review date on a page only changes when we actually review it.

## Financial relationships and public access

Participating communities pay our locating service for referrals. Renters do not pay our locating fee. The public directory and official assistance links are usable without a housing inquiry and include resources separate from our referral work. Public agencies decide their own eligibility and applications.

## Report an error or a changed resource

Use [Contact](/contact/) with the page URL, the statement that needs attention and an official source if available. Do not send account passwords, identity documents or medical records. If a legal or application deadline is close, contact the provider or a qualified adviser directly. Don’t wait for a website correction.
