Affordability

Offering Affordable Rental Options for Seniors

Carefree Development is committed to providing affordable rentals that ensure comfort, security, and peace of mind for older adults.

Our communities offer tax credit and market rate apartments. We also accept Section 8 Vouchers.

Because these special rent programs are limited to those who qualify by meeting certain income restrictions, we encourage you to ask the property’s leasing consultant for more information .

Helpful Resources for Applicants and Residents

Seniors looking to learn more about state and local housing subsidies and voucher programs have several valuable resources available to them. A great starting point is their local Senior Services Agency & Public Housing Authority (PHA), which can provide detailed information on programs like the Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8) and other income-based housing options. Additionally, state housing agencies often offer resources tailored to senior residents, including rental assistance programs and affordable housing directories. Seniors can also reach out to local Area Agencies on Aging (AAA), which offer guidance on housing resources, eligibility requirements, and application assistance. For personalized support, non-profit organizations and community housing counselors are excellent resources to help navigate the process and find the best options based on individual needs.

Carefree Development has been a pioneer in the affordable housing industry since 1995. Carefree develops and operates each community with a passion for providing quality housing that is affordable for all, regardless of income.

Carefree is known for successfully developing and operating affordable senior communities throughout the state of Illinois using unique financing programs such as LIHTC and HUD. This experience puts Carefree in a unique position to provide quality housing at an affordable price.
