The Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA) sells tax-exempt notes and bonds and loans the proceeds to private developers. These developers use the money to build, own and operate low- and moderate-income rental housing. MSHDA does not own the housing, but makes loans and regulates operation of the developments which typically range in size from 24-150 units. Separately, the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides rent subsidy to many of the MSHDA-financed developments.

Housing Developments

Since 1970 MSHDA has financed nearly 400 multi-family housing developments throughout the State of Michigan. These apartment and town home complexes are privately owned and managed, but many offer rental subsidies or other assistance to low- and moderate-income individuals and families in Michigan. A list of MSHDA-financed development locations and phone numbers is available from MSHDA's directory of Subsidized Housing.
