Bonds

The Illinois Housing Development Authority (IHDA) is empowered to issue tax-exempt and taxable bonds to provide construction and permanent financing for multifamily rental developments. The program offers developers low-interest rate construction and permanent loan financing through one application process. New construction, rehabilitation and refinance loans are considered on a case-by-case basis. Proposed developments wholly owned by non-profit organizations may be eligible for 501(c)(3) bonds.

Program rules and guidelines

Authority Rules governing the Bond programs are found in the Illinois Administrative Code, Title 47, Chapter II, Part 365.
