What we do
Project Sponsorship
Guiding Projects from Vision to Reality
For more than 40 years, NYC Housing Partnership has served as a trusted partner to developers, working alongside city, state, and federal agencies to bring affordable housing projects to life. We provide project sponsorship services that help navigate complex regulatory environments, including the ability to hold title and support developments through the full lifecycle, from predevelopment to long-term compliance, ensuring projects remain financially viable and deeply affordable.
Securing Subsidies & Certifications
Unlocking the Resources That Make Housing Possible
We help developers access the public funding and certifications needed to advance affordable housing projects. With decades of experience and strong agency relationships, we secure subsidies and entitlements at the city, state, and federal levels. Our work supports a range of housing types, including rental, cooperative, and homeownership developments, ensuring projects are structured for both feasibility and long-term impact.
Developer Loan Fund
Flexible Capital for Emerging and Community Developers
Through our affiliate, Community Partnership Development Corporation (CPDC), we provide predevelopment financing to small and emerging developers as well as community-based organizations. Our streamlined loan process helps bridge early-stage funding gaps, enabling projects to move forward to construction financing and closing. By expanding access to capital, we support a more diverse and inclusive pipeline of affordable housing development.
