About Us
As the owner and operator of over 1,200 units of affordable housing throughout Washington County, Minnesota, we play a critical role ensuring that all our neighbors have a good, safe, and decent place to call home. But community development goes beyond housing. From facilitating the growth of small businesses to funding critical services for the homeless.
What We Offer The Community
Whether it’s locating resources for your growing business, finding an affordable rental for your growing family, buying your first home, or getting help to keep or improve the one you’ve already got, our services are free and available to all Washington county residents.
Open to Business
We’ve been thrilled with the response across Washington County to Open to Business – our collaboration with the Metropolitan Consortium of Community Developers to help small and growing businesses secure access to free technical assistance and critical loans to help them flourish.
