With funding now secured, plans for the East Haven affordable apartment complex are moving ahead at full speed. Mountain Housing Opportunities (MHO) expects to break ground on the project by June 1, with an anticipated completion date in late summer of 2020. East Haven will be located near the corner of U.S. 70 and Riverwood Road.

Those interested in applying for apartments can call MHO at 828-254-4030 to have their names placed on the East Haven list. This list is not for the apartment units themselves, but for those waiting to apply. Getting your name on the list early, though, is an advantage, as it will affect the order in which applications are reviewed.

The 95-unit East Haven apartment complex will offer 1, 2 and 3-bedroom units in a variety of floor plans. Rents are expected to be approximately $260 – $700 per month, depending on family size and income. East Haven will be open to residents whose annual household incomes are at, or below, 60 percent of the county’s median income.
