Missouri Housing Development Commission
MHDC has encouraged and assisted in the
production of affordable rental housing and provided homeownership
opportunities for thousands of families. The Mission of
MHDC remains to provide quality, safe, affordable housing
for low and moderate income citizens of Missouri. It has
invested approximately $3 billion in Missouri housing, covering
every county of the state, for rental housing developments,
home mortgages, home improvement loans, loans to landlords
for renovations, grants to neighborhood housing groups and
other programs.
MHDC does not build or renovate housing
itself; rather, it functions more like a bank, providing
financing directly to borrowers or through a network of
private lending institutions. Most of MHDC's programs operate
as a public-private partnership. Population Served: Low
and moderate income families and individuals in Missouri.
Maximum income limits vary by program.
The Missouri Housing Development Commission
operates several programs to provide assistance to homebuyers,
especially new homebuyers and those who are purchasing homes
in rural Missouri. MHDC programs are designed to operate
through participating lenders and can be partnered with
USDA Rural Development, Veterans Administration, Fannie
Mae and U.S. Housing and Urban Development products. It
can also be a conventional loan product.
The MHDC Rental Housing Production Program
provides low-interest rate construction and permanent financing
to developers for the acquisition, rehabilitation and/or
new construction of rental housing for low and moderate
income families. Rental Housing Production Programs include
HOME Rental Housing Production, Tax-Exempt and Taxable Bonds,
Federal and State Housing Tax Credits, and Affordable Housing
Assistance Tax Credits. See also Missouri Housing Trust
