In MVC 4 you can link from one view to another controller passing the Id or Primary Key via   Html ActionLink  Select    Create    StudentApplication   new   id item PersonId    null

Doesn t look like you are using the correct overload of ActionLink   Try this -   lt   Html ActionLink  Modify Villa    Modify   new  id    1     gt    This assumes your view is under the  Views Villa folder  If not then I suspect you need -   lt   Html ActionLink  Modify Villa    Modify    Villa   new  id    1    null   gt

The ID will work with   sign in front also  but we have to add one parameter after that  that is null  look like    Html ActionLink  Label Name    Name Of Page To Redirect    Controller   new   id  Id Value    null

Don t put the   before the id  new   id    1      The framework  translate  it in  Lenght when there is a mismatch in the parameter route
