Research
on Financing and Other
Non-Zoning Barriers to
Increasing Missing Middle Housing Supply
HUD will award up to $500,000 under this NOFO to study
financing and other non-zoning
barriers to constructing
Missing Middle Housing (MMH). MMH is housing that
ranges in size from Accessory
Dwelling Units (ADUs) to
duplexes, townhomes, and small-scale apartment
buildings. MMH may be an effective
tool to increase the
supply of both market and affordable housing, however, it
comprises only a small segment
of the total housing
stock. Research funded by this NOFO will identify the
prevalence and impact of financing
and other non-zoning
barriers to producing MMH, and locate successful strategies
to help federal, state, and
local governments, and
private stakeholders overcome these challenges and increase
MMH supply. Submitted research
proposals must
describe how the knowledge generated under the proposed
project will contribute to
understanding the financing
and other non-zoning barriers to producing MMH.
Applications are due by February 25, 2025. For more
information on this funding
opportunity, please visit FR-6900-N-29N
