<p><span style='font-size:12px'><span style='font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif'>By issuing this RFP, NYCHA invites qualified property owners of eligible project(s), as defined below, (the Proposers) to submit written proposals (Proposals) demonstrating their project eligibility, qualifications, and interest in securing project-based vouchers (PBVs) to provide affordable housing. Pursuant to this RFP, NYCHA will award a maximum of 250 PBVs for existing housing units, newly constructed housing units, and/or rehabilitated housing units as defined in 24 CFR § 983.3.[1] NYCHA will award up to 250 PBVs in total among <u>all</u> housing types (and not 250 PBVs for each housing type). Each Proposal must include a <u>single</u> eligible project, which for the purposes of this RFP is defined as a single building, multiple contiguous buildings, or multiple buildings on contiguous parcels of land (Project). Furthermore, each Project must include <u>either</u> existing housing units, newly constructed housing units, <u>or</u> rehabilitated housing units. Projects may not include different types of housing units in a single Project. Therefore, Proposers may submit multiple proposals for consideration under this RFP for different Projects and/or housing types. If a single Proposal includes multiple Projects and/or combines different types of housing units, then it will be found non-responsive and will not be considered.</span></span></p><p><span style='font-size:12px'><span style='font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif'>The release date of this RFP is December 24, 2024 (the Release Date).</span></span></p><p><span style='font-size:12px'><span style='font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif'>A Proposers conference (the Proposers Conference) will be held online via Microsoft Teams on January 13, 2025 at 12:00 P.M.
