In collaboration with Enterprise Community Partners, NHSNYC has launched the Small Landlord Capacity Building Program to assist New York City owners of properties with 2-20 rental units in addressing the increasing challenges associated with owning and operating affordable housing in NYC. The program will support a cohort of up to 20 landlords of small-scale rental portfolios to convene over the course of 15 months. and focus on low-income and underserved communities, especially those with tenants at risk of eviction. 

To qualify for the program, landlords must own 2-20 units of affordable rental housing in New York City (NYC) and/or reside in a homeowner-occupied building with rental units. 

Valuable offerings for its participants (estimated value: $30,000) will include:

• trainings
• physical needs assessments
• customized technical assistanc
• resources for and guidance in addressing tenant rental arrears
• opportunities to share knowledge and information with the program’s organizers and peers on eviction prevention needs.

If you are a small landlord interested in being considered for this program, please contact Michael Minott at Michael_minott@nhsnyc.org.
