The Community Land Trust Pilot is administered by the North Dakota Housing Finance Agency (NDHFA) to expand single-family housing for low- to moderate-income households in North Dakota. It provides local community land trusts with low-cost credit to finance housing work, rather than offering grant funding.
The pilot supports acquisition, rehabilitation, demolition, and new construction of homes on in-fill lots and in higher-density neighborhoods. Its scope includes both work involving existing homes and development of new housing. The resulting homes are intended for resale to income-qualified households, connecting the land trusts’ property acquisition and building activities to the program’s goal of increasing housing for lower-income North Dakotans.
