Description
Kansas Housing Resources Corporation (KHRC), Kansas’s housing finance agency, administers this HOME-only opportunity to support affordable rental housing development through the federal HOME Investment Partnerships Program. It helps communities and developers expand affordable housing options, encourage private investment, and respond to local housing needs. The broader housing development program supports new construction, acquisition and rehabilitation, and conversion of existing properties.
HOME-only rental development has a dedicated application pathway, separate from KHRC’s 4% and 9% Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) pathways. Applicants use a shared housing development workbook alongside HOME-only guidance and a dedicated checklist. KHRC delivers housing resources through partners across Kansas rather than providing housing or services directly.
