Affordable Housing Finance has selected 36 developments as finalists in its 14th annual Readers’ Choice Awards competition.
Competing in 10 categories, they represent some of the most innovative affordable housing developments that were completed in 2017 and 2018. The finalists were selected based on the impact they are having on residents, creative problem-solving, sustainable and inventive design, and innovative financing.
The finalists were chosen from over 150 entries and are located in 16 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico.
The developments will be featured in the July/August issue of Affordable Housing Finance magazine, and magazine and newsletter subscribers can then vote to select the winners in the 10 categories plus an overall winner. Voting will take place online from July 2 to Aug. 3 and is restricted to subscribers as of June 29.
The winners will be announced in September and honored at AHF Live: The 2018 Affordable Housing Developers Summit, Nov. 12-14, at the Hyatt Regency Chicago.
