The Affordable Housing and Special Needs (ASNH) Housing Program fills gaps in financing the development of new and rehabilitated affordable and special needs housing for low-income Virginians. While these programs are statewide, the program gives priority to projects outside those areas receiving a direct federal HOME allocation through a local PJ or HOME consortium. Assistance is most often provided as permanent financing.
Eligibility
Applicants include nonprofit or for-profit housing developers, CHDOs and public housing authorities seeking to develop affordable housing projects in Virginia.
Eligible project costs include new construction, rehabilitation and acquisition of affordable homebuyer and rental units and must include at least five units.
Applications are accepted quarterly and are due March 31, June 30, Sep. 30 and Dec. 30.
