City Building More Diversity Into Affordable Housing Campaign

Real Estate Weekly: The city is looking to give minority and women businesses a bigger role in saying who gets the keys to new affordable homes by training them to become qualified marketing agents.

The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) is partnering with Goldman Sachs, LISC NYC, and Enterprise Community Partners to create Pathways to Opportunity, a two-phase initiative that aims to give those who need affordable housing the most a chance to be part of the city’s 10-year plan to build and preserve 300,000 homes.
