Infrastructure Access Loan

The Infrastructure Access Loan helps developers cover the cost of installing, replacing, upgrading, or improving public infrastructure for workforce or senior housing. When infrastructure is provided by developers, it can add significant costs to a project, putting upward pressure on rents and home sale prices. Infrastructure Access reduces housing costs by providing low-cost loans for critical needs such as water systems, roads and utility extensions.

Funding available:  $275 million
Funds awarded as of fall 2025: $10,701,493
