It is important to realize that HEART is not a builder of affordable homes, but rather a funder of affordable homes. Typically, a developer or non-profit housing provider like Habitat for Humanity or HIP Housing will plan a development , obtain the necessary approvals from the jurisdiction in which the development is located, and apply for funding from HEART. If the development meet’s HEART’s criteria, HEART will provide either early seed funding or late-stage funding to fill in the gaps. When the development is complete, the homes will either be rented or sold to first-time buyers. In the case of rental developments, the complex will be managed by a reputable property management firm. Again, HEART’s role is not to build or manage property. HEART’s role is to raise and provide funds. Sale (5 YRS) BMR ($400k) Down Payment $20,000 Appreciation $41,968 Loan Principal Paid $36,299 Total $98,268
