Milford Housing Development Corporation

MHDC was founded in 1977 by a group of local concerned citizens who saw a dire need for affordable housing in the community.  The agency was led solely by volunteers and a dedicated Board of Directors for may years.  In the early 1990's, the agency hired its first employee and growth quickly began.  Within 3 years, MHDC completed its first affordable, senior rental complex.  Also, during that same time MHDC became the first and only recipient in Delaware authorized by USDA Rural Development to operate the Self-Help Housing Program.

MHDC has become a leader in affordable housing by offering a continuum of services.  These services include:  Statewide Emergency Repair Program (SERP), Home Repair Program (HRP), Self-Help Housing Program, Multi-Family Rental Housing, Single-Family New Construction, and the Homebuyer's Club.  We believe these services meet the needs of our communities, fulfills our mission, and promotes community stabilization.
