Neighborhood Rebuilder Program
The Neighborhood Rebuilder Program offers developers short term construction
loans. The rate is 6.5% for 12 months*. For application and additional
information, E-Mail: rebuilder@chif.org
The Neighborhood Rebuilder Program provides a source of subsidies for
development to pay for the "appraisal gap" that exists between the total
development cost and the after-rehabilitated appraised value of the property.
After rehabilitating the unit, the new homebuyer obtains a permanent mortgage
based on the appraised value of the completed property, and assumes the
appraisal gap (the second mortgage) subsidy from the developer. This "silent,"
or "soft" second mortgage is forgiven after a short term, usually five
to ten years.
