What to Expect

By participating in Bright in Your Own Backyard, you can expect that Hello Housing’s team will:

 

  • Assess your property for feasibility and help you establish a project vision that fits within your available resources

​

  • Help identify third-party professionals and coordinate design, review potential costs associated with proposals and request refinements of the proposals.

​

  • Shepherd your project through the permitting process.

 

  • Help identify contractors and provide construction management support throughout the entire build.

​

  • 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.
