Lottery Process

Applications will be distributed between the dates stated above. Applications will be made available online, by mail, and in-person during the scheduled distribution times.

The application must be postmarked on or before the application deadline date. Applications will not be accepted by email.

  1. Applicants who submit a complete application by the deadline will then be entered into the lottery.
  2. All applicants will receive an application number.
  3. The application number is used for the lottery to keep the identity of applicants confidential.
  4. Peabody Properties will then conduct a lottery and each applicant will then be assigned a lottery number (lottery #1 being first).
