The problem

Affordable senior housing shouldn’t be this hard.

Finding the right apartment is only the beginning.

Families often have to search dozens of websites, understand complicated eligibility requirements, call individual properties, figure out which waitlists are open, gather documents, complete different applications, and repeatedly follow up.

Orange Nests handles the work end-to-end—not just the search.

“Where do I even start?”

“We found the right options and know exactly what to do next.”

Time back for what matters

Spend time with your family—not chasing apartments.

If you’re helping a parent or loved one, you’re probably already balancing work, family, and everything else. Orange Nests does the legwork with you.

Start Finding Housing

Your nights and weekends shouldn’t disappear into:

  • ×Government websites and scattered PDFs
  • ×Calls to apartment managers
  • ×Eligibility and waitlist comparisons
  • ×Repetitive applications and spreadsheets
  • ×Follow-up dates you have to remember

Why we built Orange Nests

Inspired by our own family’s experience.

When we needed to find affordable senior housing for a parent, we discovered how fragmented the process was.

The information existed—but it was scattered across government websites, housing authorities, property websites, PDFs, phone calls, and individual applications.

Finding a property was only the first step. Then came eligibility questions, phone calls, waitlists, paperwork, applications, and follow-ups.

We built Orange Nests to make that entire journey simpler for other families.

Frequently asked questions

Questions, answered clearly

What is affordable senior housing?+

Affordable senior housing generally refers to programs and properties designed to make rent more affordable for older adults who meet eligibility requirements. Requirements vary by property and program.

Do I have to be 62 or older?+

Some programs require residents to be 62 or older, while others use different age requirements. Orange Nests helps identify options based on your situation.

Does Orange Nests own or manage the apartments?+

No. Orange Nests is an independent housing navigation service. We help people find opportunities and navigate contacting properties and applying.

Can Orange Nests guarantee that I’ll get an apartment?+

No. Availability, eligibility, waitlists, and final approval are determined by individual properties and housing programs. We make pursuing the right opportunities easier.

Can you contact apartments for me?+

Yes. Property outreach is a core part of our end-to-end service. We contact properties to clarify eligibility, availability, waitlists, application requirements, and next steps.

Can you help with applications and follow-ups?+

Yes. We help gather application requirements, prepare and complete forms, track deadlines and waitlists, and follow up with properties so the process keeps moving.
