acquisitions & development


We have successfully developed over 17,000 units— testament to our know-how in site assessment, financing, project planning and construction.


Our development activities include market analysis, site selection, planning, zoning approval, financing, architectural coordination, construction bidding and supervision, marketing strategies and transition to property management. In addition, we have managed condominium conversions and large scale projects.

The Habitat Company has developed properties financed through a broad range of conventional and public funding programs, including tax-exempt bonds, low-income housing tax credits, HOME, CDBG, and project-based section 8. This experience has provided us with knowledge to successfully complete transactions that require complex financing structures.
