How it Works
Finding Housing Made Simpler
Keys In My City NYC was built to help voucher and subsidy holders find apartments without the chaos of endless phone calls and unanswered messages. Our platform gives you a structured way to connect with brokers and landlords who are actively accepting housing vouchers.
Step 1
Create Your Profile
Create your free account and complete your profile with important housing details such as:
- Borough preference
- Household size
- Voucher type
- Move-in timeline
- Employment or income source
Step 2
Browse Eligible Listings
Once registered, you can browse apartments that accept voucher programs such as:
- Section 8
- CityFHEPS
- FHEPS
- HASA
- SOTA
Step 3
Send a Key
If you find a listing you’re interested in, you can send a Key request to a broker.
- A Key tells the broker or landlord that you are interested in their listing.
Step 4
Broker Accepts Your Key
If the broker accepts your Key request:
- Contact information is unlocked
- The broker can move forward with the housing process

Review Key Requests
When a client sends a Key request, you can review their profile and decide whether to accept or decline the request.

This protects brokers from spam and ensures they only communicate with interested and qualified clients.
A Better Way to Connect Housing Opportunities
Traditional housing searches often involve hundreds of phone calls, unanswered emails, and confusion.
Keys In My City NYC solves this by creating a structured system where:
- Clients only contact brokers through Key requests
- Brokers control who they respond to
This creates a more efficient housing process for everyone involved.
