VHFA is pleased to announce Mascoma Bank has joined as a participating lender and is now offering VHFA programs and benefits to eligible homebuyers.

Earlier this summer the Vermont Housing Finance Agency (VHFA) Board of Commissioners awarded just under $10 million from Vermont's newly launched Rental Revolving Loan Fund (RRLF). These awards will fund development of 265 apartments in nine Vermont communities across the state. 

A consortium of Vermont housing and community development partners are assessing the Vermont landscape for off-site construction (including panelized construction), modular, and manufactured home initiatives.  As local and state policy makers take steps to meet housing needs, the potential of advanced construction approaches continues to draw significant interest. Advocates point to benefits in terms of cost savings, labor, volume, climate and design and building standardization.
