Links to program publications are shown following the program description.
Purpose

Assistance Type
Loans
Terms
Short-term conversion loans at three percent simple annual interest for up to 3 years to enable a resident organization, nonprofit sponsor or local public agency to purchase a mobilehome park.
Long-term blanket loans at three percent simple annual interest for up to 30 years for long-term financing of a park purchase, or for a resident organization, nonprofit or local public agency that has purchased a park to help low-income residents finance the purchase of shares or spaces in the park. Payments of conversion and blanket loans can be deferred or adjusted if necessary to make the purchase feasible.
Long-term individual loans at three percent simple annual interest, to low-income residents of a mobilehome park that has been converted, to ensure housing affordability when the resident buys a cooperative interest, a share, a planned unit development space, or a condominium space in the park.
Eligible Activities
Purchase (conversion) of a mobilehome park by a resident organization, nonprofit entity or local public agency; rehabilitation or relocation of a purchased park; purchase by a low income resident of a share or space in a converted park.
Eligible Applicants
Mobilehome park resident organizations, nonprofit entities, and local public agencies. Low income residents of converted parks apply for individual loans to the entity that has purchased the park.
Application Process
Applications are invited through issuance of Requests for Proposals (RFPs). Projects are evaluated, ranked and funded according to criteria in the RFPs.
