Is this part of the Town of Winter Park’s housing lottery?
No. The Town does not manage the Fireside Creek Apartments, and this leasing event is not part of the annual housing lottery. Applicants will be awarded housing on a first-come, first-served basis.
What is my likelihood of getting an apartment at Fireside Creek?
Residents interested in community housing in Winter Park have never had a better chance of landing a unit. Those who attend the leasing event on April 5 at 9 a.m. with all of their paperwork, cashier’s check for a deposit and application fee, and other requirements have a very good chance of getting one of the 50 apartments. Those who submit complete applications after the first 50 will be added to the waitlist.
Do I have an equal chance of getting an apartment if I can’t make the April 5 event, but I can attend the April 6 event?
The leases will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. If all 50 apartments are filled on April 5, those who apply on April 6 will be added to a waitlist in the order that their applications were received.
Where can I learn more about the apartments and see photos?
