01What it does

What Northshore Housing Initiative Inc does

Mission

Northshore housing initiative (nhi) is a community land trust, a community based organization committed to the permanent stewardship of land and the long-term affordability of workforce housing. Using a shared equity model, nhi helps moderate-income homebuyers purchase a home by investing in the land. The land is leased to the homebuyer by the trust with a long-term lease that includes a resale formula to ensure affordability is preserved for the next homebuyer.

As stated on its FY2022 Form 990.

Program

  1. The organization currently operates an owner identified homeownership program. Once qualified for the land purchase grant the homeowner pre-qualifies with a lending partner and finds the house they wish to purchase. Through local partnerships the organization provides homebuyer and financial literacy training and insures safe and affordable mortgages for homebuyers. The owner identified program has closed on 17 properties to date. St. Tammany parish grants fund the land purchases and certain organizational operating costs.

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
