DHCD launched the Site Acquisition Finance Initiative (SAFI) - Bridge Loan Program Request for Proposals (RFP), and DHCD wants to parter with organizations that provide real estate financing and technical assistance to affordable housing developers. Affordable housing projects often stall because financing is not available at the exact moment when its needed. Through the SAFI Bridge Loan Program, DHCD will invest funds with selected lenders to help unlock flexible, short-term bridge financing so developers can move quickly when opportunities arise and keep projects on track in today’s real estate market.

SAFI Bridge Loans will:

  • Leverage public and private financial resources to support production and preservation of affordable housing in the District of Columbia
  • Assisting affordable housing developers with the creation and preservation of affordable housing in the current real estate market
  • Providing a streamlined process to administer predevelopment, acquisition, mezzanine financing or other bridge loans by partnering with lenders with funds to finance opportunities for affordable housing production and preservation.

Contact Us: If you have questions about the SAFI Bridge Loan Program RFP, email [email protected].
