Housing Development Alliance, Inc. - What We Do
Because the housing needs of the region we serve are so diverse, we strive to develop a variety of housing options for those who need our help. The primary focus of the Housing Development Alliance (HDA) consists of our home ownership program and our home rehabilitation program. The HDA home ownership program uses a combination of low interest rate loans, grants, development subsidies, volunteer labor, and sweat equity to make homeownership affordable. We also offer customized home ownership counseling to our clients.
With our home rehabilitation program, HDA addresses the needs of established home owners. Our clients’ homes are often in poor condition and require multiple repairs. HDA assists with everything from minor repairs such as weatherization and porch repairs, to major repairs such as rebuilding roofs and replacing drywall and/or plumbing and electrical systems. HDA provides quality repairs while keeping the cost to the home owner as affordable as possible. Many of our homeowners also face extreme energy cost. Thus the repairs we complete are designed to enhance the homes energy efficiency.
