AI Contract Overview
The Rhode Island Housing and Mortgage Finance Corporation (RIHousing) is soliciting proposals for the HOME-ARP Production Fund Program aimed at reducing homelessness by supporting the acquisition, rehabilitation, and construction of affordable rental housing targeted toward qualifying populations defined under HUD CPD Notice 21-10. Approximately $4 million in funding is available, structured as a 0% interest, deferred loan with a 30-year term secured by deed restriction. Eligible applicants include for-profit and non-profit developers as well as Public Housing Authorities operating within Rhode Island. The program emphasizes creating new rental units that serve homeless individuals, those at risk of homelessness, veterans, and other designated vulnerable groups. Projects must demonstrate readiness to proceed, financial feasibility, and development team capacity, with a requirement for a minimum 15-year affordability period plus an additional 15-year extension, effectively securing affordability for 30 years. Applicants must submit comprehensive proposals that include a Tenant Selection Plan prioritizing qualifying populations, a Supportive Service Housing Plan supported by memorandums of understanding or service contracts, and evidence of site control. Compliance with Davis-Bacon labor standards is mandatory for projects with more than 11 assisted units, and all projects must adhere to relevant HUD regulations and the HOME-ARP Allocation Plan amendment approved by HUD. Proposals will be evaluated on criteria including the creation of new affordable units, committed operating support, demonstrated experience administering federal housing programs, and development team qualifications. The fund must be fully expended by September 30, 2030, and awardees are required to commence construction within nine months of preliminary funding commitment. Proposals are due via RIHousing’s electronic portal by December 31, 2025.
