2026 MHP Gap Funding NOFA
Department of Housing and Community Development
Who can apply
Eligibility to apply for funding through this NOFA is limited to multifamily projects (rental housing developments) that have an existing HCD award from one or more of the qualifying HCD programs. Projects must not have begun construction.
About this opportunity
This MHP Gap NOFA provides funds for previously HCD-awarded projects that demonstrate readiness and commit to applying to the next funding cycle of California Debt Limit Allocation Committee (CDLAC), or that are fully funded with a small post-award funding gap resulting from decreased tax credit pricing or unanticipated increased costs. This NOFA also provides streamlining in its application process and scoring criteria. As detailed in the NOFA, documents and conditions previously determined through existing HCD awards will not be re-reviewed, repetition in point scoring categories is minimized, and application underwriting and feasibility review requirements are streamlined
