We are located in Lyons, Kan., and only handle housing for our facilities (Park Place and Kingswood Apartments). We do not handle all of Kansas. Your email was not specific if you would be locating to our area? On the application page of our website is a tab to print our application. You would complete and return to us to be added to our waiting list. We are public housing regulated through HUD so in order to qualify for a 3 bedroom unit there would need to be 3-6 people to house.
If you should have any questions when filling out the application, please feel free to contact us.

I would like to clarify your question? Are you meaning to purchase a home? Or to fill out an application for public housing? We do not need co-signers for public housing applications.

We typically look at if you owe utilities or other creditor such as HUD housing. If you have a lot of medical bills, we do not consider those. Not so much the credit score as to whom you owe. We house people with no score. Hope this helps?
