Home Ownership

Employer-Assisted Home Ownership Program

“The struggle to recruit and retain employees is real and longstanding. Our organization continues to look for methods to help address these workforce challenges. At the same time we are seeking to make a meaningful connection between business and community. Providing homeownership opportunities to employees is a great way to encourage a walk to work community.” says Stephanie Harling of Havenwoods Neighborhood Partnership.

The HNP has partnered with select local business to offer down payment assistance for employees looking to buy a home within Havenwoods. This innovative program has helped many employees become proud home owners. And the businesses involved find that the positives of a deepening connection to the community pays of tremendously.

To help make a difference and find out more about the program, the businesses involved or how your business may become a participant, contact Stephanie Harling at sharling@havenwoods.org.

Havenwoods BID #31

Havenwoods BID #31

HNP uses a variety of strategies to promote the continuing revitalization of Havenwoods. Establishing the Havenwoods BID #31 is one such key initiative in that effort.

Established in 2003, the objective of the BID is to revitalize and improve the Havenwoods business district and market the industrial and retail corridor to attract more businesses. These objectives complement our efforts in neighborhood revitalization, community organizing and increased quality of life.

Some of the strategies we employ include economic development, workforce development, business assistance, safety and improving public infrastructure.

The BID boundaries are North/South from W. Silver Spring Drive to W. Good Hope. The East/West boundaries vary throughout. The most easterly boundary is N 51st and westerly is N. 77th. You can view a map of the BID HERE.

Resources

Resources for Business

The HNP has business assistance programs. These programs include facade, landscape and security grants.

The purpose of this grant program is to encourage and assist property owners within the Havenwoods BID area to improve the aesthetics and /or safety of their property. To make it easy for business owners to access these grants, we have combined all of our grant programs into one grant. This allows the applicant flexibility in choosing how to spend their grant money. This merged grant program will allow the applicant to combine facade, landscape and safety improvements. Any business owner will also be able to apply for a stand-alone project if that is preferred.
