Apply Seriously, Wait Patiently: Another Successful Housing Application from BAAHSC
Great news continues to arrive - another client has successfully secured affordable housing through the application, and she’s excited to share her journey!
We had the opportunity to sit down with this lucky applicant to better understand her experience, in hopes that her insights might help other community members still waiting for their opportunity.
The Timeline: Fast and Encouraging
She submitted her online application on April 1st. Just three weeks later, on April 24th, she received an email notifying her that she had been selected by lottery - which means she made it onto the official waiting list. From this point, she’ll be contacted for further verification when a suitable unit becomes available.
Her Secret to Success? Preparation!
We asked her about one of the most common concerns applicants face: how much preparation is actually required?
To our surprise, she reassured us that the form itself is not difficult—mostly basic personal information. However, she stressed one key tip that made all the difference:
“Prepare all your documents in advance! That way, you’re not scrambling to find information while filling out the form. It saves time and reduces the chance of errors.”
That advice really resonated with us. Since most affordable housing opportunities have short deadlines, being organized and ready can significantly increase your chances of submitting a complete application before the deadline.
How BAAHSC Helped Her Stay on Track
When we asked whether the BAAHSC’s housing resources helped her during the process, she didn’t hesitate:
“Super helpful!! Your monthly housing listings are so clear. I just spend half a day each month reviewing the list and quickly identifying which apartments fit my needs. It’s much easier than aimlessly searching on my own. You make it possible to stay consistent.”
We’re thrilled that our services played a role in her successful application, and we hope her good fortune will inspire and guide others still navigating the system.

又有好消息啦！
幸福湾居再次迎来一位幸运的友邻，她成功通过抽签进入了等候名单，向拥有稳定住房迈出了关键一步。在喜悦之余，她也希望能将自己的经验分享给还在努力申请中的朋友们，鼓励大家坚持不懈，增加成功的可能性。
申请时间 & 中签经历
这位幸运申请人告诉我们，她是在 4月1日 提交了申请。大约三周后，4月24日 她就收到了中签通知邮件，确认她已被抽中（selected by lottery），成功进入了等候名单。接下来，她将等待房源单位进一步联系，以完成后续的资料审核流程。
这一阶段虽然仍需等待，但中签本身就已经迈出了非常重要的一步！
申请准备经验：资料准备是关键！
很多人可能觉得申请流程复杂，甚至望而却步。我们也特别询问了这位申请人，她是如何准备的。
她表示，其实申请表本身并不难，主要填写的是一些基础的个人资料。但她的“制胜法宝”在于——提前准备好所有所需文件和信息！
“这样填写的时候就不会手忙脚乱，一边找资料一边填表，不仅效率高，而且更不容易出错。”
确实如此。我们也观察到，大多数房源的申请窗口都比较短暂，有效的准备能帮助大家抓住每一个机会，大大提高申请成功的几率。
幸福湾居的资源对她有没有帮助？
我们当然也想知道，我们的工作是否真正帮助到了大家。
答案是肯定的！她非常开心地告诉我们：
“超级有用！！幸福湾居每个月发的房源列表特别清晰。我每个月只要花半天浏览，就能快速筛选出适合自己的房源，直接投递申请。比起自己上网乱找房源，这种方式省时省力，也更容易坚持下去。”
这也是我们坚持整理、发布每月房源信息的初衷：为大家节省时间，提供准确、有用的资源，陪伴大家走在申请住房的路上，不再孤单。
愿好运持续传递给每一位努力申请的友邻
我们为这位申请人的成功感到由衷高兴，也希望她的好运可以传递给仍在等待的你！
