Renting to Own - Boston’s Newest Model of Affordable Homeownership

The Mayor’s Housing Innovation Lab is soliciting innovative proposals from creative teams of developers, lenders and service providers interested in partnering with the City to develop affordable rental-to-homeownership housing units and/or pilot the use of new financing tools that create clear pathways for low and/or moderate income Boston renters to start building wealth in year one and transition to affordable homeownership in Boston within a defined and reasonable time frame (e.g. 5 years). 

 

Successful proposals will be eligible for MOH funding based on the demonstrated need for gap financing and availability of funds, and multiple proposals may be selected for funding. 

The RFP application package will be posted by May 30, 2023 and can be downloaded by registering at https://www.boston.gov/dnd/rfps/. Completed RFP responses must be submitted electronically by August 4, 2023, no later than 4:00 PM.
