LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) – Governor Gretchen Whitmer and the Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA) announced that more than $13 million in low-income housing tax credits will be used to build new low-income rental properties or rehabilitate existing properties.
The funding will pay for the renovation of 14 properties and 690 housing units.
“Investments in housing help us put Michiganders first and are critical to furthering our economic momentum,” said Governor Gretchen Whitmer in a press release. “When families have a place to call home, it leads to upward mobility, a higher quality of life, and thriving communities. This program helps us lower costs for working families by providing housing stability and opportunity.
