Community Housing Development Corporation

Community Housing Development Corporation (CHDC) was founded in 1990 with a vision of creating vibrant, safe, and diverse communities throughout our region where people of all ages can thrive within communities free of blight, crime, and pollution, where involved residents have access to affordable housing, education, health care, and economic opportunity. CHDC provides a broad range of affordable housing opportunities and services to enable low/moderate-income residents to gain better housing and financial stability. Our unique approach to community development engages residents at the grassroots level and ensures that the whole neighborhood and its residents benefit from the affordable housing and the neighborhood services provided. CHDC develops housing for families of all sizes, ages, and people with disabilities. We emphasize affordability for people with incomes below 80% of the area’s median income. Our for-sale properties are targeted at first-time buyers. Buyers are prepared and qualified to purchase through CHDC’s Homeownership Program. As a certified Community Development Financial Institute (CDFI) we can make direct loans to first-time homebuyers, along with down payment assistance.
