What does it mean when a management/realty office tell you an apt. you applied for is 'not on the market'?

I am awaiting word on the rent fee of a particular apartment I applied for and the management office can't tell me unless they hear back from the Dept. of Buildings in my city on what they should charge for rent. Is there such a thing?What does it mean when a management/realty office tell you an apt. you applied for is 'not on the market'?
not on the market means it is not available--rented out-taken.

For whatever reaon, the apartment is no longer available. Maybe they're waiting for a rental rate, your credit report, having work done inside, hoping to have another apartment to offer you.

Is is a tax credit apartment? If so they will go by your income on the rate of the apartment. If someone else applied for the apartment and all there paper work came back first it is first come first served . That is the way it works sorry.
