I’m going to be straightforward with you: this article exists because I’ve sat across from clients who were trying to find an apartment while still processing a life-altering diagnosis. Car accident. Stroke. Spinal injury. MS flare that changed everything. They’re dealing with pain, medication side effects, insurance fights, and on top of all that, they need a place to live that works for a body that moves differently than it did three months ago.
And sometimes it’s not the person themselves doing the searching. It’s a spouse, a parent, an adult child trying to figure out housing for someone they love who’s still in a hospital bed. If that’s you, call me on their behalf. I work with family members and caregivers regularly, and the process is the same.
I’ve placed renters in Austin apartments for over six years, and I’ve worked with every income type: W-2 employment, self-employment, retirement, VA benefits, SSI, SSDI, employer disability insurance, and savings-only situations. I know which Austin properties accept disability income as qualifying income, which management companies actually have accessible units versus which ones just check a box on Apartments.com, and which property classes have income thresholds low enough to work with fixed disability payments.
Most of what you’ll find online about disability housing is either a legal explainer about the Fair Housing Act or a list of government programs with multi-year waitlists. Neither of those helps when you’re being discharged from a hospital in two weeks and your second-floor walkup is no longer livable. This guide covers the practical steps: what to do first, breaking your current lease, understanding the income math, targeting the right properties, and using workarounds that actually work in Austin’s market right now.
What to Do First: A Triage List
Your situation is chaotic right now. You’re juggling medical decisions, insurance, maybe rehab, and now housing. You don’t need a 4,000-word article right this second. You need to know what matters this week versus what can wait. Here’s the short version:
This week (from the hospital or rehab facility):
- Ask for the hospital social worker. Tell them you need housing assistance. They have connections to transitional housing, rapid rehousing programs, and local nonprofits. This is a free resource most patients never ask for.
- File for SSDI and/or SSI if you haven’t already. SSDI has a five-month waiting period from disability onset before benefits begin. SSI applications take months to process. Start now because every week you wait extends the gap.
- If your employer offers short-term disability insurance, file that claim immediately. It pays faster than SSDI (usually 60-80% of your salary) and gives you stronger income documentation for apartment applications in the near term.
- Start gathering documents: medical provider letter describing your disability, any income documentation you have (last paystubs, savings account statements, benefit award letters), photo ID, and your current lease.
In the next 2-4 weeks:
- If your current apartment doesn’t work for your new needs, send a written reasonable accommodation request for early lease termination (details below).
- Get on every government housing waitlist you qualify for: Section 8, Section 811, mainstream vouchers. These won’t help you now, but they start the clock.
- Call me or someone who knows the Austin screening landscape. I can start matching properties to your specific income, accessibility needs, and timeline while you focus on recovery.
Expect these to take months:
- SSDI approval and first payment (5+ months from onset in most cases)
- Section 8 voucher (2-5+ years in Austin)
- Section 811 placement (months to years, limited availability)
The rest of this article breaks each of these down in detail.
What “Accessible” Actually Means (And What It Doesn’t)
Here’s something most apartment listing sites won’t tell you: the “wheelchair accessible” filter on Apartments.com, Zillow, and ForRent.com is self-reported by property managers. No one verifies it. A property can claim wheelchair accessibility because the building has an elevator even if every unit has a 28-inch bathroom doorway and a step-up bathtub. So what does “accessible” actually mean? Less than you’d think.
I’ve toured over 500 Austin apartment communities. Some that market as “accessible” have a ramp at the leasing office and nothing else. Others have genuine ADA-compliant units with roll-in showers, 36-inch doorways, and lowered countertops, but only 2-3 units in a 300-unit building.
ADA vs. Fair Housing Act: which law actually applies:
Most people use “ADA” and “accessible” interchangeably, but the Americans with Disabilities Act primarily covers public accommodations (businesses, government buildings, public spaces). For residential apartments, the Fair Housing Act (FHA) is the law that matters.
Under the FHA, buildings constructed after March 1991 with four or more units have to include accessibility basics in ground-floor units (or all units if the building has an elevator). That means accessible entrances, common areas you can navigate in a wheelchair, doors wide enough to get through, reachable light switches and outlets, bathroom walls reinforced for grab bars, and enough space in the kitchen and bathroom to approach with a wheelchair.
Fair warning: “reinforced bathroom walls for grab bar installation” means the walls are structurally ready. It doesn’t mean grab bars are installed. You have the right to request grab bars as a reasonable modification, but in most non-subsidized housing, you pay for the installation yourself.
What to actually verify on a tour (or have someone verify for you):
| Feature | Marketing Claim | What to Actually Check |
|---|---|---|
| Wheelchair accessible | Building has elevator | Unit doorways 32-36 inches wide, including bathroom |
| ADA bathroom | Grab bars in common area restroom | Roll-in shower OR tub with removable seat + grab bars in unit |
| Accessible entrance | Ramp at leasing office | No-threshold entry to actual unit, not just building |
| Ground floor available | Ground floor units exist | Ground floor units currently available and not all 2-3BR |
| Accessible kitchen | Standard kitchen | 30-inch clearance under sink, lowered countertops, reachable cabinets |
| Turning radius | Not mentioned | 60-inch turning circle in bathroom and kitchen |
If you can’t tour in person (and many people in this situation can’t), I do FaceTime and Zoom walkthroughs. I bring a tape measure. I check doorway widths, bathroom turning radius, threshold heights, and cabinet reach. You or a family member can watch from a hospital room or rehab facility and know exactly whether a wheelchair, walker, or equipment fits before committing to a lease.
Breaking Your Current Lease for Medical Reasons
If your current apartment is no longer livable because of a disability, whether that’s a second floor with no elevator, a bathtub you can’t get into, or doorways too narrow for a wheelchair, you may have grounds to break your lease under the Fair Housing Act.
The FHA requires landlords to provide reasonable accommodations. In plain English, that means they have to adjust their rules or policies if a disability makes it necessary. Early lease termination can qualify as a reasonable accommodation when your unit can’t be made accessible or staying puts your health at risk.
What you need:
- A letter from your medical provider stating you have a disability that substantially limits one or more major life activities (walking, self-care, etc.)
- A written request to your landlord framing the early termination as a reasonable accommodation. Use those exact words.
- An explanation of why the current unit cannot meet your needs (be specific: “unit is on second floor with no elevator access” or “bathroom doorways are 28 inches wide, below wheelchair clearance”)
What to expect:
This is not a guaranteed right. Texas has no statute that explicitly grants medical lease termination. The Fair Housing Act argument is strong, but the landlord can push back. They might offer an alternative, like transferring you to a ground-floor unit in the same complex. If a reasonable alternative exists and you reject it, your legal position weakens.
The practical reality: most property management companies will negotiate if the documentation is solid. They’d rather agree to a mutual lease termination than face a Fair Housing complaint. Get everything in writing. If they agree, get the termination terms documented and signed by both parties.
If your landlord pushes back, the Austin Tenants Council (512-474-1961) provides free tenant rights counseling, and Texas RioGrande Legal Aid offers free legal assistance for low-income Texans.
If you’re trying to break a lease and find a new apartment at the same time and can’t physically manage both, call me at 512-320-4599. I handle the apartment search while you or your family handles the lease termination.
The Income Shift: What You Can Actually Afford in Austin
This is the section nobody wants to write honestly, but I’m going to give you the real numbers because you need them to make decisions.
Where your income might be right now:
Your income situation depends on how far along you are in the disability process. That changes your apartment options more than anything else.
- Still employed with short-term disability insurance: Typically 60-80% of your salary for 3-6 months. This is your strongest income position for apartment applications. It’s higher than SSDI and comes with employer documentation. If you’re in this window, move on housing now while the income number is strongest.
- Waiting for SSDI approval: SSDI has a five-month waiting period from disability onset. Applications can take longer. During this gap, you may have no documented monthly income. You could be living on savings, family support, or employer disability payments winding down.
- Receiving SSDI: Varies by work history. Average is roughly $1,630/month as of 2026. Could be higher or lower depending on your earnings record.
- Receiving SSI: $994/month in 2026 for an individual. This is the federal benefit rate for adults with limited work history and limited resources.
- Workers’ compensation: Varies by injury and employer. Often temporary and may transition to SSDI.
The income math against Austin rents:
| Income Source | Monthly Amount | Max Rent at 3x | Max Rent at 2.5x | Max Rent at 2x |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Short-term disability (example: 70% of $60K salary) | ~$3,500 | $1,167 | $1,400 | $1,750 |
| SSDI (average) | ~$1,630 | $543 | $652 | $815 |
| SSDI (higher range) | $2,200 | $733 | $880 | $1,100 |
| SSI only | $994 | $331 | $397 | $497 |
Austin rent reality by property class:
| Property Class | Typical Rent Range | Income Requirement | Min Monthly Income Needed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Class A (5-15 years old) | $1,500-$2,200 | 3x rent | $4,500-$6,600 |
| Class B (15-30 years old) | $1,100-$1,600 | 2.5x-3x rent | $2,750-$4,800 |
| Class C (30+ years old) | $800-$1,200 | 2x-2.5x rent | $1,600-$3,000 |
| LIHTC/Income-Restricted | $700-$1,100 | Income caps, not multipliers | Below AMI limits |
I’m not going to sugarcoat this: if your only income is SSI at $994/month, you cannot qualify for any market-rate apartment in Austin on your own. Even Class C properties with a 2x income requirement need $1,600/month minimum income. The gap is real.
If you’re on short-term disability insurance, the math is much friendlier. That $3,500/month qualifies for Class B properties and opens up a lot more inventory. The catch: that coverage runs out in 3-6 months, so think carefully about what happens to your rent obligation when it switches to SSDI.
SSDI recipients in the higher range ($2,000+) have workable options at Class C and some Class B communities, especially when concessions bring net effective rent down.
If you have savings but no monthly income yet:
If you’re in the gap between disability onset and SSDI approval, you may have savings or assets but no documented monthly income. Some Austin communities will accept savings or assets as proof of ability to pay, particularly with credit above 600. This varies a lot by management company, and I’m not going to generalize because the list changes constantly. Call me at 512-320-4599 and I’ll put together a property-specific list for your situation.
Income verification: what apartments actually ask for:
Here’s what apartments actually ask for: bank statements, tax returns, offer letters, and paystubs. Those are the standard forms across the Austin market. For disability income, your SSA award letter or benefit verification letter is the main document. Have it ready along with 3-6 months of bank statements showing consistent deposits. And here’s a detail worth knowing: some communities with credit above 600 don’t request income documents at all. If your credit is still strong, that opens doors.
Income requirements and approval decisions are made by each apartment community independently. This information is for general guidance only.
The LIHTC opportunity most people miss:
Here’s something most people in this situation don’t realize: LIHTC (Low Income Housing Tax Credit) properties have maximum income limits, not minimum. If you were earning $65,000 a year and couldn’t qualify for LIHTC housing, you may now qualify on SSDI at ~$19,560/year. Austin metro LIHTC income caps for a one-bedroom unit are approximately $56,500 annually. Your new income puts you well under that ceiling.
LIHTC properties rent $100-$150 below market rate and use different qualification standards than conventional apartments. They verify you’re under the income cap and can pay the listed rent. It works differently than the 3x multiplier screening most market-rate properties use.
Reasonable Accommodations in the Application Process
A landlord cannot deny your application because you have a disability. That’s a Fair Housing Act violation, full stop. But they CAN deny you because your income doesn’t meet their requirement. And when SSI or SSDI income falls below the standard 3x threshold, that’s exactly what happens.
Here’s the workaround: you can submit a reasonable accommodation request asking the landlord to adjust their income requirement. Basically, you’re saying: “My income is disability-based and fixed. I can show reliable payment history. Please consider a lower income threshold as an accommodation under the Fair Housing Act.”
The landlord is not required to grant this. But the request creates a paper trail. If they deny you and you file a Fair Housing complaint, the formal request strengthens your position considerably.
How to submit the request:
- Put it in writing (email creates a record)
- Use the phrase “reasonable accommodation” specifically
- Attach your disability award letter showing consistent monthly income
- Attach 3-6 months of bank statements showing reliable SSA deposits
- Don’t disclose your specific diagnosis. You only need to confirm you have a disability
Medical debt and your credit: how apartments screen for it:
A sudden disability often comes with unexpected credit damage. Medical bills in collections, missed payments during hospitalization, income disruption. You may have had a 720 credit score six months ago and a 580 now.
Here’s what I tell clients about this: medical debt in collections tanks your credit score, but apartments screen for it differently than property debt. Property debt, meaning money owed to a previous landlord, is a near-automatic decline at almost every community. Medical collections are a different animal. They drag down your score but don’t set off the same alarms on rental history reports.
So if your credit dropped from 720 to 580 because of medical bills, you’re dealing with a credit tier issue, not a rental history issue. That’s an important distinction. More properties can work with your profile than if you had an eviction or unpaid landlord balance. Your options narrow based on the credit score itself (a 580 accesses roughly 60-70% of the Austin market), but medical collections alone won’t get you auto-declined.
Service animals and emotional support animals:
If you have a service animal or emotional support animal, the landlord cannot charge pet rent or a pet deposit. This is federal law under the Fair Housing Act.
| Service Animal | Emotional Support Animal (ESA) | |
|---|---|---|
| Definition | Trained to perform specific tasks related to disability | Provides comfort/companionship for disability symptoms |
| Documentation needed | None required (for housing) | Letter from licensed healthcare provider |
| Pet deposit | Cannot be charged | Cannot be charged |
| Pet rent | Cannot be charged | Cannot be charged |
| Breed/weight restrictions | Waived | Waived |
| First-year savings | $600-$1,400 (deposit + monthly pet rent) | $600-$1,400 |
| Public access rights | Yes (restaurants, stores, etc.) | No, housing only |
Have your documentation ready before you apply. For an ESA, you need a letter from a licensed mental health provider stating you have a disability and the animal alleviates symptoms. The letter needs to be on provider letterhead with their license number, dated within one year. Skip the online “ESA registration” sites. There’s no official registry, and landlords can reject those letters.
Government Programs: What’s Real and What’s a Waiting List
I’m going to run through the government housing programs that apply to disability and give you the realistic timelines. Most articles list these programs like they’re solutions you can access next month.
| Program | What It Does | Eligibility | Austin Wait Time | Reality Check |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Section 8 (Housing Choice Voucher) | Subsidizes rent: you pay 30% of income | Very low income (below 50% AMI) | 2-5+ years | Waitlist often closed entirely |
| Section 811 PRA | Project-based rental assistance at specific properties | Extremely low income + disability + linked to HHSC services | Months to years | Limited to specific Texas metro areas and properties |
| Mainstream Vouchers | Tenant-based vouchers for non-elderly disabled | Disability + low income + under age 62 | Months to 1-2 years | Shorter waitlist than Section 8 but still substantial |
| Public Housing | Government-owned housing units | Low income | 1-3+ years | Limited inventory in Austin |
| LIHTC properties | Privately owned, income-restricted units | Below AMI income caps | Weeks to months | Best near-term option |
Section 811 in Texas runs through TDHCA (Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs) and requires you to be linked to HHSC services. It’s only available in certain metro areas, and the property list is short. You can check the TDHCA Section 811 participating property map to see what’s open near you, but don’t expect a long list of options.
Here’s my honest take: if you need housing in the next 2-4 weeks because you’re being discharged, government voucher programs will not help you right now. Apply anyway. Get on every waitlist you qualify for, because that starts the clock. But your immediate housing plan needs to focus on the private market.
Source of income protection: the Texas reality:
Texas does NOT have a statewide source of income discrimination law. Austin passed a local ordinance in 2014 protecting voucher holders, but the Texas Legislature passed SB 267 in 2015, which preempted all local source of income ordinances statewide. The only exception: local protections for veterans remain enforceable.
What this means: a private landlord in Austin can legally decline your application because your income comes from SSI or SSDI. They can’t decline you because you’re disabled. But they can decline you because your disability income doesn’t meet their income threshold. That distinction is why targeting the right properties matters more than knowing your rights.
Workarounds That Actually Work in Austin
Government programs are the long game. Here’s the short game: strategies that can get you into an apartment in weeks, not years.
LIHTC properties: If your income dropped from employment wages to disability payments, you may now qualify for LIHTC apartments that were out of reach before because you earned too much. LIHTC communities in Austin rent $100-$150 below market and have different qualification processes. That makes them your most realistic option for quick placement on disability income.
Third-party guarantee services: A lease guarantor service acts as insurance for the apartment community, guaranteeing rent payment. Using one drops the income requirement from 3x to 2.5x at most properties. Cost is typically one month’s rent ($1,000-$1,500), payable as a lump sum or split over 5-6 months. For an SSDI recipient at $1,630/month, this shifts your max qualifying rent from $543 (at 3x) to $652 (at 2.5x). Combined with a LIHTC property at $700-800? The numbers start working.
Roommate strategy: Two SSI recipients combined earn $1,988/month. At a 2x income requirement, that qualifies for up to $994/month rent, which puts you in Class C range. SSDI recipients combining income with a roommate can reach Class B properties. Shared housing isn’t ideal for everyone, especially with medical equipment needs, but it’s the fastest way to make disability income meet Austin’s rental thresholds.
Texas Workforce Commission: Vocational Rehabilitation: TWC’s vocational rehabilitation program (formerly DARS) serves Texans with disabilities and can help with housing-related costs during transition, including security deposits, move-in fees, and home modifications in some cases. You’ll get a case manager who can coordinate with your apartment search. Call 1-800-628-5115 to start an intake.
Hospital social worker: use this before discharge: If you’re in a hospital or rehab facility right now, ask for the social worker today. Hospital social workers have connections to transitional housing, rapid rehousing programs, and local nonprofits that assist with emergency placement. They can also connect you with case managers who stay involved after discharge.
Home modification funds: Some nonprofits install grab bars, ramps, or other accessibility modifications in rental units at no cost. Rebuilding Together Austin serves low-income and disabled residents with home modifications. Local Independent Living Centers (ILCs) can also help. In the Austin area, ARCIL (A Resource Center for Independent Living) at 512-832-6349 connects you with modification resources and can advocate for reasonable modifications with your landlord.
Reasonable accommodation request on income: Even if your income doesn’t meet the standard threshold, submitting a formal reasonable accommodation request puts you in a stronger position. Some management companies will approve applicants whose disability income is below the standard requirement if the income is consistent and documented. It doesn’t always work, but it costs nothing to ask, and it creates a legal record.
If your situation involves disability income combined with screening complications like a credit hit from medical debt, a broken lease from a hospitalization, or rental history gaps, that’s where having someone who knows the Austin screening landscape makes the difference. Call 512-320-4599 or text 512-865-4672.
Medical Equipment and Floor Plan Realities
If you use a wheelchair, oxygen equipment, or home dialysis, the apartment floor plan isn’t a preference. It’s a medical requirement. Here’s what to think through before signing a lease.
Wheelchair users:
- Minimum 60-inch turning circle in bathroom and kitchen (measure both)
- Doorways: 32 inches absolute minimum, 36 inches preferred
- Roll-in shower is ideal. Tub with shower chair and grab bars works if the bathroom is wide enough to transfer
- No-threshold entry at the actual unit door, not just the building entrance
- Accessible kitchen: 30-inch knee clearance under sink, reachable cabinets, front stove controls
Oxygen equipment:
- Concentrator needs floor space near an outlet (roughly 2×3 feet) with adequate ventilation
- Portable tanks need secure, upright storage. A coat closet works.
- Keep away from heat sources and open flames (gas stoves are a concern, so ask about stove type)
- Verify outlet placement and circuit capacity in the bedroom
Home dialysis:
- Peritoneal dialysis: needs a clean, dedicated space and supply storage (30-40 boxes of solution per month, which takes up a closet worth of space minimum)
- Hemodialysis: needs plumbing access, a dedicated electrical circuit, and significant floor space. A spare bedroom is effectively required.
- In both cases, verify water pressure and drainage capacity with the property before signing
I physically measure units for clients: doorway widths, bathroom turning radius, hallway clearance, closet dimensions for equipment storage. If you’re shopping from a hospital bed or rehab facility, I walk the unit on FaceTime or Zoom with a tape measure while you or your family member watches. You can order furniture, arrange equipment delivery, and plan your setup before you ever set foot in the unit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I break my lease in Texas if I become disabled? Texas doesn’t have a specific statute granting medical lease termination. But the Fair Housing Act requires landlords to provide reasonable accommodations, which can include early termination when the unit is inaccessible due to disability. You’ll need a medical provider letter and a written request using the phrase “reasonable accommodation.” It’s not guaranteed, but most property managers will negotiate rather than risk a Fair Housing complaint.
Do apartments in Austin accept SSI as income? Some do. Primarily Class C properties and LIHTC communities. Most Class A and B properties require 3x income, which SSI at $994/month won’t meet. Some communities with credit above 600 don’t request income documents at all. Contact me for a current list of properties that work with disability income. It changes regularly.
What’s the difference between ADA and Fair Housing Act for apartments? Short version: the ADA covers public buildings (businesses, government offices, public spaces). For apartments, the Fair Housing Act is what matters. It requires accessibility features in buildings built after March 1991 with four or more units, and it gives you the right to request reasonable modifications to your unit and reasonable accommodations to a landlord’s policies.
Can a landlord deny me because my income is SSI or SSDI? They cannot deny you because of your disability. They CAN deny you because your income doesn’t meet their threshold, even if the reason your income is low is disability. Texas has no source of income protection law (Austin’s 2014 ordinance was preempted by state law in 2015). Your best strategy is a reasonable accommodation request on the income requirement, combined with targeting properties that have lower thresholds.
How long is the Section 8 waitlist in Austin? Two to five-plus years, and the waitlist is frequently closed. Apply at the Housing Authority of the City of Austin (HACA) when the list opens, but do not count on Section 8 as your near-term housing solution.
Can a landlord charge a pet deposit for a service animal? No. Under the Fair Housing Act, landlords cannot charge pet deposits, pet rent, or apply breed/weight restrictions for service animals or emotional support animals. This applies to all housing, not just subsidized properties.
What is a reasonable accommodation request? A written request asking your landlord to change a rule or policy because of your disability. Could be early lease termination, an exception to an income requirement, a reserved parking space, or permission to install grab bars. The landlord has to consider it and work with you on a response, but they’re not required to say yes to everything.
Are there apartments near hospitals in Austin? Central Austin has the highest concentration near major medical facilities: Dell Seton Medical Center, St. David’s Medical Center, and Ascension Seton are all within a few miles of multiple apartment communities. South Austin has proximity to St. David’s South Austin Medical Center. Call me with your specific medical facility and I’ll pull properties within whatever radius works for your appointments and care.
What is Section 811 housing in Texas? A federal program that provides rental assistance at specific properties for extremely low-income adults with disabilities. In Texas, it’s run through TDHCA and you have to be connected to HHSC services to qualify. Only available in certain metro areas, and the property list is limited. Check the TDHCA Section 811 participating property map to see what’s near you.
Can I get help with a security deposit if I’m on disability? TWC’s vocational rehabilitation program can sometimes cover deposits and move-in costs during transition. Local nonprofits and faith-based organizations may offer emergency assistance. Contact 211 Texas (dial 2-1-1) for a referral to deposit assistance programs in your area.
What if I have savings but no monthly income yet? If you’re in the gap between disability onset and SSDI approval, some Austin communities will accept savings or assets as proof of ability to pay, particularly with credit above 600. This varies by management company and there’s no universal rule. Call me at 512-320-4599 and I’ll put together a list specific to your situation.
What should I look for in an accessible apartment tour? Bring a tape measure or have someone measure for you. Check doorway widths (32-36 inches minimum), bathroom turning radius (60 inches for wheelchair), threshold heights at every doorway, and whether grab bars are installed or walls are reinforced. Also check roll-in shower vs. step-in tub, kitchen counter height and under-sink clearance, outlet locations for medical equipment, and elevator reliability if you’re not on the ground floor.
The Bottom Line
The hardest part of finding an apartment after a sudden disability isn’t knowing your legal rights. It’s the income math. SSI and SSDI payments fall below standard income requirements at the vast majority of Austin properties, and Texas offers no source of income protection to bridge that gap.
Your strongest path forward depends on three things: your actual monthly income right now, your current credit profile, and how quickly you need to move. Employer disability payments, savings, and SSDI each open different doors. Credit that shifted from medical bills changes your tier but doesn’t disqualify you. Government programs are worth applying for. Get on every waitlist. But they’re the long game. The short game is targeting Class C and LIHTC communities, using reasonable accommodation requests where the numbers are close, and working with someone who knows which properties will actually approve your profile.
My service is free. Apartment communities pay my referral fee from their marketing budget, so you pay the same rent whether you use me or apply directly. I’ve placed renters on SSI, SSDI, VA benefits, employer disability payments, and savings-only documentation. I know which properties accept disability income, which ones have actually accessible units, and which management companies will work with reasonable accommodation requests.
