Waitlist Central is powered by HousingLink, a nonprofit organization focused on increasing housing choice, access, and equity in Minnesota. Waitlist Central simplifies the waitlist process for property managers and renters.

For property managers, Waitlist Central takes care of the following:

  • Affirmatively Marketing Your Open Waitlist

    In compliance with HUD requirements, we make sure a wide range of renters know about your open waitlist.

  • Pre-Applications

    Renters apply to get on your waitlist from the convenience of their phone, tablet or computer. We even handle paper applications for those who don't have access to technology.

  • Keeping Renter Contact Information Current

    Property managers report they only reach 40% of the households at the top of their waitlists due to outdated contact information. We reach out to renters regularly to make sure you have the latest contact information. Get ready to fill those vacancies faster!

  • Waitlist Management

    We make it easy to see who is on your waitlist, priority status, and more. With Waitlist Central, you will save a ton of time and money managing your waitlists.

Free for renters, Waitlist Central makes life a lot easier and convenient:

  • Easily see waitlists where you qualify

    You no longer have to make multiple phone calls just to find out if you qualify. You'll see it all right on our website.

  • Get on waitlists from your phone, tablet or computer.

    You no longer have to apply separately to all of the places where you qualify! Don't have access to technology and need a paper application? No problem. We have you covered.

  • Quickly update contact information... ONCE

    In the past, if your phone number or address changed that meant a lot of paperwork to update each waitlist that you are on. Not with Waitlist Central! Just update your profile and we'll notify all of the waitlists you are on.

  • See where you are at on the list at any time

    Are you tired of wondering how far down the list your name is? Not with Waitlist Central! Just log into the website and see where you are at on the list.

Property managers and renters, get ready to simplify the Waitlist process with Waitlist Central!
