The Housing Assistance Council (HAC) is helping rural communities by making short-term loans at low interest rates. These loans are designed for nonprofits, local governments, and even small businesses that are working to create affordable housing for low-income families.

HAC loans can cover important early costs like buying land, paying for surveys, or covering architectural and environmental fees—expenses that often come up before construction can begin. By offering this type of flexible financing, HAC makes it easier for small towns and local organizations to move housing projects forward.

With loan options for pre-development, land purchase, site work, and even full construction, HAC provides tools that rural communities need to improve housing and living standards. These funds also support the preservation of existing affordable housing and the use of healthy, green building practices.

If your organization is planning an affordable housing project in Southwest Georgia, HAC loans could help bridge the gap until permanent financing is in place.
