Nationwide Affordable Housing Compliance

    Our software

    Affordable housing compliance software, built by operators.

    HousingIntellect is the compliance platform Altus Compliance owns and uses: a multi-program calculation engine for LIHTC, HUD, HOME, and Rural Development that works alongside the property management system your team already runs, including Yardi, RealPage, and AppFolio.

    Why we built it

    Built because nothing else fit.

    Over 12 years of running affordable housing compliance operations, we kept seeing the same pattern. Existing compliance software was built either by general property management vendors who didn't understand affordable housing, or by software companies that didn't understand operations.

    Neither approach produced tools that actually helped compliance teams do their work better. So in 2024, we started building one ourselves.

    What it does

    Purpose-built for affordable housing compliance.

    Multi-Program Calculation Engine

    Income, asset, and rent compliance across LIHTC, HUD, HOME, Rural Development, Bond, RAD, and state programs.

    Automated File Review Flags

    Rules-based checks surface potential findings for your team to review. Optional, and every flag is reviewed by a compliance professional before it means anything.

    Audit-Ready Documentation

    Comprehensive audit trails, role-based dashboards, and resident-facing portals.

    Architecture

    Built for regulated compliance work.

    Human-First

    Every flagged item requires explicit human review before it becomes a compliance determination.

    Works Alongside Your PMS

    HousingIntellect complements Yardi, RealPage, and AppFolio rather than replacing them.

    Audit-Native

    Everything logged. Designed from day one to support regulatory review.

    Two sides, one perspective

    Two services, separate offerings.

    Altus Compliance and HousingIntellect are separate offerings. You can engage Altus for consulting work without using the platform. You can use HousingIntellect without engaging Altus for consulting. Some clients use both.

    What they share is the underlying philosophy: compliance is operational work, and the tools and support around it should reflect that.
