housing trust

Nonprofit residential provider

A housing trust is an organization, often nonprofit or government-affiliated, that develops, manages, or finances affordable housing.

Housing trusts typically hold property or funds dedicated to providing homes for low- and moderate-income residents: The city's housing trust built three hundred units last year.

Community land trusts are a related model where the trust retains ownership of the land while residents own the buildings.
