Eernisse Apartments
- Affordable Housing Apartments (for Family)
Location: Vashon, WA - 98070 Contact Phone: (206) 463-6454 Details: Eernisse Apartments has 26 affordably-priced apartments built in 2007. The project is the first apartment complex in the community built with large families and groups in mind. There is a mix of one, two, and three-bedroom units -- the only affordable three-bedroom apartments on Vashon Island. Eernisse is home to many families who have been priced out of the sky-rocketing rental market. All of the units are affordable to households that meet the federal definition of “low income," and half are affordable to those considered “very low income." VHH secured permanent rental assistance for residents with the greatest need. This subsidy ensures that 13 of these households will pay no more than 30% of monthly income to rent. This property was named for Fred Eernisse who owned and farmed the land that was bought before developing. |
