Housing Development
Creating multi-unit rental developments and single-family units
Housing Development (HD) grants focus on the creation of multi-unit rental developments and single-family units, while also providing support for homeownership activities for low and moderate-income families.
The 2010 grant cycle is closed. The 2011 and 2012 grant cycles do not include the Housing Development program.
Preference for HUD funds goes to:
- Local governments in Tier 1 and Tier 2 Counties
- Municipalities that have designated State Development Zones (SDZs)
- 21st Century Communities
Funding for the Individual Development Account (IDA) Program is money from de-obligations and other uncommitted funds.
