About Bayview Heights
Bayview Heights is a HUD-assisted rental property in Portland, Maine. According to HUD's Multifamily Properties (Assisted) dataset, the building has 60 total units, of which 59 receive federal rental assistance under Section 202 / 811 Supportive Housing and PRAC (Project Rental Assistance Contract). That means the resident's share of rent is generally limited to roughly 30% of adjusted household income, with HUD covering the remainder of the contract rent paid to the owner.
This property primarily serves elderly residents (62+). About 98% of current residents are 62 or older, which is consistent with a Section 202 supportive housing community.
If you'd like to apply, contact the property's management office below. Project-based Section 8 waiting lists are managed by the property, not by your local public housing authority — you must apply to each building separately.

How to apply
Project-based Section 8 properties keep their own waiting lists. To apply to Bayview Heights:
- Call the management office at the number above (or use the contact below) and ask whether the waiting list is open.
- Request an application packet. Most properties will mail or email it; some require you to pick it up in person.
- Have your documents ready: photo ID, Social Security cards or numbers for every household member, birth certificates for minors, the last 2–3 months of pay stubs or benefit award letters, and prior addresses for the last 5 years.
- Return the application as instructed. Keep a copy for your records and write down the date you submitted it.
- Update your contact information any time you move or change phone numbers — properties remove applicants who can't be reached.
