What 485-x and UAP Mean for These Five Apartments

The listing's description reads "485-x & UAP - 5 units at 60% AMI." HPD's production data counts the same five apartments: three one-bedrooms and two two-bedrooms out of 25.

The two programs, in HPD's words

485-x"a real property tax exemption for the construction of new Multiple Dwellings." The apartments "must share the same common entrances and common areas as the market rate units."
UAPhomes "for residents with incomes at or below a weighted average of 60% of the Area Median Income (AMI)." The fact sheet adds "no income band exceeds 100% AMI."
Where UAP applies"UAP applies to R6 through R10 zoning districts." PLUTO lists this lot as R6.
Before a listing485-x projects send "the Notice of Intent to begin marketing to HPD Marketing" after HPD approves their workbook.

Option	Building size	What HPD's page requires
A	100 or more apartments	"25% of the units must be Affordable Housing Units at an average of 80% Area Median Income (AMI)"
B	6 to 99 apartments	"20% of the units must be Affordable Housing Units at an average of 80% AMI"
C	6 to 10 apartments	"At least half of the units must be rent stabilized."

What it means: no record opened names the 485-x option, or says which apartments count under UAP and which under 485-x.

Can You Use CityFHEPS or Section 8 at 1530 Bergen Street?

Yes. Housing Connect accepts vouchers, and a voucher holder does not have to meet the minimum income. The one-bedrooms are $1,078 under the 2026 CityFHEPS maximum, and the two-bedrooms $1,103 under. The listing does not say which utilities the rent includes.

The Housing Connect FAQ says: "Minimum income requirements do not apply if you have a voucher or a rental subsidy. However, rent should be within maximum limits allowed by your voucher or rental assistance program."
