Austin Developers Undergo Training to Build More Affordable Housing

The Small Developer Training Program in Austin, hosted by the Austin Housing Finance Corp. (AHFC), is helping 20 small developers build affordable housing. Led by Capital Impact Partners and HousingWorks Austin, the program trains participants on navigating the local review process, securing financing, and finding land for development.

The program, which began in July, emphasizes diversity and aims to address the city’s housing affordability crisis.
