What to Expect
By participating in Bright in Your Own Backyard, you can expect that Hello Housing’s team will: 1) assess your property for feasibility and help you establish a project vision that fits within your available resources, 2) help identify third-party professionals, coordinate design, cost estimating, bidding and value engineering, 3) shepherd your project through the permitting process, 4) provide construction management support and 5) ensure you receive landlord training to support fair housing practices.
We will organize your project budget and schedule into the following five phases, so you can understand the financial implications of moving through each phase.
