Wisconsin CHDOs

The Partnership has worked with Wisconsin CHDOs since 1992 under a series of contracts with HUD. The Partnership works with Wisconsin CHDOs in two ways:

• We offer full-service technical assistance for the development of housing projects.
  
• We provide special assistance on organizational and planning issues.

The Partnership as Full-Service Technical Assistance Provider

The Partnership's full-service technical assistance package offers strong support to CHDOs throughout the development process. We help CHDOs identify and evaluate site options, obtain site control, conduct feasibility analyses, select project development teams, plan for construction or rehabilitation, negotiate and secure financing commitments, manage construction, and plan for project rent-up or sale.

Special Assistance on Organizational and Planning Issues

The Partnership can assist nonprofit organizations as they enter the field of affordable housing development and become CHDOs. For example, in areas of the state where there is little or no CHDO housing activity, the Partnership can work with nonprofit groups as they plan for and take the organizational and strategic steps necessary to become certified as CHDOs. The steps involved in becoming CHDOs make such organizations more likely to successfully develop affordable housing projects.
