The Colorado Housing and Finance Authority (CHFA) launched a new pilot program to help catalyze the development of small-scale affordable housing in historically difficult-to-develop areas by providing technical assistance.

Eligible participants include for-profit, nonprofit, local government and community collaboratives seeking to develop up to 30 units or less of affordable housing for rent or for sale. Technical assistance is being provided by housing consultants selected through a competitive RFP process conducted in 2020.

In its inaugural application round, CHFA received nine applications. CHFA will hold a second application round for project sponsors seeking technical assistance this fall. For more information or to submit an application, please contact CHFA marketing and community relations director, Jerilynn Francis or CHFA commercial operations and underwriting manager, Kristi Budish.
