 2026 Single Family RFP Coming Soon
The 2026 Single Family Request for Proposals (RFP) is anticipated to open on Wednesday, April 8, 2026. Dates will be finalized in a future eNews and on the Community Homeownership Impact Fund webpage.
The Single Family RFP is a competitive process that provides funding through the Community Homeownership Impact Fund (Impact Fund) and the Workforce and Affordable Homeownership Development programs for a variety of homeownership activities. The goal of the programs is to increase the supply of affordable, owner-occupied, single-family housing while maintaining the safety and habitability of existing owner-occupied, single-family homes in communities throughout Minnesota. Funds are available for cities, federally recognized American Indian Tribes or subdivisions located in Minnesota, tribal housing corporations, private developers, nonprofit organizations, school districts, charter schools, and cooperative units as defined in Minnesota Statute 123A.24 subdivision 2.
