RFA 2014-113 Financing To Build Larger Permanent Supportive Housing Properties
For Persons With Developmental Disabilities
Florida Housing Finance Corporation (the Corporation) was appropriated $10 million in Grant Funds by the 2014 Legislature for housing for Persons with Developmental Disabilities as defined in Section 393.063, Florida Statutes. This Request for Applications (RFA) will make $3 million in Grant Funding, up to $3 million in additional Loan Funds, and up to an estimated $2.3 million of Competitive Housing Credit Allocation available for award to proposed Developments funded by the Corporation that have not previously been awarded funding. These Applicants must apply for Grant and Loan Funding and Competitive Housing Credits.
Funding will also be made available to Applicants that were awarded funding in RFA 2013-004, but have not yet closed on that award due to financing shortfalls discovered in the credit underwriting process. For these Applicants, an additional $3 million in Grant Funding will be made available. If Competitive Housing Credits remain unallocated after selecting Applications in this RFA that were not awarded in RFA 2013-004, these Applicants may be eligible for the remaining Competitive Housing Credits.
