Protecting and preserving existing affordable homes is essential to addressing the housing affordability crisis. By safeguarding these homes, we ensure stability and opportunity for current and future generations. As part of SAHF’s commitment to preserving affordable homes financed with the #HousingCredit, our new guide offers best practices and considerations from the field, informed by asset manager input, that are long-term focused and for properties approaching Year 15: https://lnkd.in/ezuXdRxr #LIHTC #Preservation  

Nonprofits are vital partners in addressing the #affordablehousing crisis and advancing preservation efforts. To ensure long-term stability for residents and keep properties affordable for communities, it’s critical that they can fully exercise their Right of First Refusal (ROFR) at Year 15. SAHF’s latest report highlights the challenges nonprofits face in securing their ROFR in #HousingCredit properties.

ICYMI - We recently launched the inaugural issue of SAHF Spotlight, a newsletter dedicated to sharing valuable insights and resources aimed at advancing #affordablehousing solutions nationwide.

As you expand resident services and programs, a data system is key to understanding your impact. The best data system is one that meets your unique needs – there is no one size fits all approach! SAHF published an updated guide to provide a starting place for those investing in a data system for the first time, or finding a system that better aligns with their current programs and future growth. On Thursday, Dec 12 from 2-3:30 PM ET, join us for a webinar where we’ll preview this updated guide! You will also hear from practitioners at True Ground Housing Partners, POAH Communities, and National Housing Trust about the data systems they have used to track resident services and their experiences.
