Description
The North Dakota Housing Incentive Fund (HIF) provides financial support for the creation and preservation of affordable housing across North Dakota. The program funds both multifamily and single-family housing projects, with a focus on serving low- and moderate-income workers, seniors, individuals with disabilities, and people at risk of homelessness. In recent years, HIF has expanded to include support for new construction, rehabilitation, preservation, or acquisition of single-family homes—particularly in developing communities or through community land trust projects. The fund is designed to help address local housing needs and foster sustainable, accessible, and affordable housing solutions.
