DEVELOPING AFFORABLE hOUSING
Florida's NeighborWorks organizations partner with public and private funders, lenders and nonprofit practitioners to create high-quality, affordable housing solutions across our great state...from our urban cores to our rural communities, we work to offer Florida families a wide array of affordable options that they can be proud to call 'home.' Our members specialize in local solutions that include:
- Single-family home sales, rentals, owner-occupied repairs and/or rehabilitation;
- Multi-family home (i.e. apartment, townhomes, etc.) rentals, owner-occupied repairs and/or rehabilitation.
During FY 2024, the strategies implemented by Florida's 12 local NeighborWorks organizations collectively improved the state's affordable housing options in the following ways:
- 4,666 housing units (single and multi-family) were owned or managed by local NeighborWorks organizations.
- 2,605 additional owner-occupied and rental properties were improved through basic repair work.
- 695 homeowners received assistance that significantly rehabilitated or preserved their homes.
