Granite United Way's Affordable Housing Incentive Program (AHIP) Offers Landlord Connection

Granite United Way’s Affordable Housing Incentive Program (AHIP) is offering a Landlord Connection informational session on August 15, 2023 from 9:00 am – 11:00 am at Belknap Mill in Laconia. 
 
Landlords are invited to join the event for coffee and pastries where they can hear from housing experts and learn about the benefits available to landlords and property managers through Granite United Way's Affordable Housing Incentive Program (AHIP). The event is complimentary. 
 
“This is a great opportunity for local landlords, property managers, and housing providers to learn more about regional housing needs and challenges and the ways in which the Affordable Housing Incentive Program can help overcome some of the challenges associated with providing affordable housing,” said Kara Rodenhizer, Director of Housing Initiatives at Granite United Way. “Addressing the shortage of affordable housing in New Hampshire is a complex and multifaceted issue that requires understanding, creativity, and multisector collaboration. We see landlords as critical stakeholders in navigating the State’s housing challenges. Through programs like AHIP, we strive engage landlords and property managers in a solution to creating pathways to affordable housing in local communities by equipping them with the necessary supports and resources to do so.”
