Ithaca Neighborhood Housing Services (INHS)

In my opinion, INHS does a fantastic job building and leasing high quality rental apartment to lower income families. They have been around since the late 1970s and have assisted thousands of families to find (rent or own) safe and affordable housing

They evicted a disabled friend of mine because of bedbugs (which I think is illegal in NYS) which resulted in him being homeless and forced to live with a relative, which then caused that person to have bedbugs also.

I have worked with them a few times over the years; my main transaction with them was ~10 years ago with their first time homebuyer program and interest free loan to help with a down payment. At that time, I found them to be very helpful; not sure how they are doing these days though...

Where to begin if you have nothing positive to say. For a company that in theory is meant to assist and help the public, this company will and does everything in their power to avoid helping those it is intended to service. If your intent is to engage in INHSs first time home buyers program, I urge you now to seek else where. After spending 200 dollars on a needless class in order to qualify for the INHS down payment grant they will string you along for months at a time. At which point you will deal with The head of the grant department. A man we will call P who is grossly and morbidly incompetent, who will continue to request information he already has even after communicating with a bank, make false promises, and gas light you. This service is not set up for the people. This service is set up so that this company APPEARS TO be “for the people”. Meanwhile not caring if the disservice they’ve done does the opposite of what they supposedly stand for and leaves you homeless. INHS is simply a joke. I would leave a zero star if I could.
