Public beta: Affordable Forever is live for early use and feedback. Building dates and purchase-right screens are preservation signals, not automatic legal determinations; check the source and protection details on each page.
Your life on the housing clock

A housing deadline is also a date in somebody's life.

Enter a LIHTC early-warning year from the building search — or a verified affordability year from an actual regulatory agreement — and see how old you will be when that date arrives.

Use the year shown by Find Your Building or a verified governing date. We do not invent one if you leave this blank.

Why calculate the age at all?

Housing policy often talks in financing periods: ten years, fifteen years, thirty years, a contract renewal, a tax-benefit term. Tenants live those periods as decades of their lives. A person who is 45 when an affordable home opens may be 75 when a thirty-year milestone arrives. That does not tell us the legal outcome — but it tells us why advance notice and preservation planning matter.

A preservation timeline is not only a financing schedule. It is a tenant's aging, family, health, neighborhood and ability to remain at home.

This calculator intentionally does not assume “LIHTC = 30 years from move-in.”

Move-in date does not establish when a LIHTC project's regulatory term began, and a 30-year NHPD screening calculation is not automatically the controlling legal expiration. Use the building search for the dataset's early-warning year, then verify the governing agreement and other protections before treating any date as legally controlling.
