Building for the Future: 2022 Annual Report

“Keep your eyes on the stars; keep
your feet on the ground.”
– President Theodore Roosevelt

Ryan Vincent

 

As an avid gardener, I love perusing seed catalogs in the snowy winter months with dreams of giant tomatoes and pumpkins the next season. Teddy Roosevelt’s quote reminds me to dream big, but focus on the groundwork (which, in a garden, literally means composting and prepping the soil)!

Laying a solid foundation is just as important when building a home. Even in sunny Kansas, the winds will blow, and the storms will rage; yet a solid foundation ensures a stable home.

Kansas Housing has been similarly laying the groundwork with an eye to the stars:

  •  It started 20 years ago when KHRC became a public corporation, administering solid programs. Kansas Housing laid the foundation.
  • Through natural disasters in Greensburg and Southeast Kansas, economic headwinds of the Great Recession, and lean budget years, providing resources and building partnerships, Kansas Housing laid the foundation.
  • With the pandemic’s devastating impact on Kansas’ renters, homeowners, and housing providers, through the administration of emergency housing assistance, Kansas Housing laid the foundation.
  • Working closely with housing partners and community stakeholders, KHRC facilitated and released the first statewide housing needs assessment in nearly 30 years. Kansas Housing laid the foundation.
  • Taking the important message to the Statehouse alongside advocates and stakeholders, culminating in a historic state investment in housing development resources, Kansas Housing laid the foundation.

The foundation is solid, but the work has only begun! Still our eyes are on the stars. In this Annual Report, you will:

  • Learn about KHRC’s vital work keeping Kansans in their homes through the Kansas Emergency Rental Assistance Program and Kansas Homeowner Assistance Fund.
  • Read about KHRC’s efforts rolling out the new state housing development resources.
  • Stay engaged with ongoing traditional programs and resources.
  • Hear about the lives Kansas Housing is touching in communities around Kansas.

THE FOUNDATION IS SOLID, BUT KHRC’S WORK UNLOCKING HOME CONTINUES. WE’RE READY TO DIG IN. WILL YOU JOIN US?

Annual Report to find out more!

Kansas Housing Resources Corporation (KHRC) helps Kansans access the quality, affordable housing they need and the dignity they deserve. KHRC serves as the state’s housing finance agency (HFA), administering essential housing and community programs to serve Kansans.

KHRC-Paola-02

Purchasing a home in rural Kansas just got easier, thanks to a new initiative launched by Kansas Housing Resources Corporation (KHRC). The Home Loan Guarantee (HLG) for Rural Kansas helps existing and prospective homeowners in rural counties finance home loans for land and building purchases, renovations, or new construction costs. The initiative aims to close the appraisal gap in rural areas, where the cost of purchasing, renovating, or constructing a home often exceeds the property’s appraised value.

“Our rural communities must have adequate housing to prosper and thrive,” said Ryan Vincent, Executive Director of KHRC. “Communities cannot attract jobs or retain workers and families without quality, affordable homes. We are grateful to our state leaders for allocating these crucial funds to help rural Kansans achieve and preserve the dream of homeownership.”

HLG funds will be used to guarantee the portion of a loan above 80 percent and up to 125 percent of the home’s appraised value and must not exceed $100,000 per home. Eligible financial institutions serving rural counties can submit requests to the HLG program for a guaranty. Lender requests will be processed on a first-come, first-verified basis.

Rural counties are defined as those with populations of 10,000 or less. The HLG program has $2 million available for non-recourse guaranties through the Kansas Rural Home Loan Guarantee Act.

More information for lenders and homeowners can be found online.

Homeowners in need of assistance encouraged to apply now

The Kansas Homeowner Assistance Fund (KHAF), a federally funded, temporary emergency program to support homeowners experiencing hardship during the COVID pandemic, has dispersed 75 percent of program funds. Since the program launched in April 2022, KHAF has provided $34,946,068 to 3,151 households. With a quarter of funds still available, homeowners in need of assistance are encouraged to apply now while funding remains.

“I was stressed and overwhelmed when I got behind on my mortgage payments,” said one KHAF applicant. “With so much going on in my life, I was hesitant to get started applying. However,  I learned that the application process was much easier than I thought.  My advice to others is to apply now; don’t wait. If you need help, you can always call a KHAF customer service representative.”

KHAF was established with American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to help qualifying Kansas homeowners get current on their mortgage payments and avoid foreclosure. Eligible homeowners at least 30 days past-due on mortgage and/or property taxes can receive payment assistance for mortgages, utility bills, property taxes, and other charges associated with delinquency.

For more information and to apply, visit the Kansas Homeowner Assistance Fund (KHAF) webpage.  For questions, contact KHAF customer service at 855-307-5423.

Five Kansas communities will receive a combined total of $2.4 million to develop affordable housing for moderate-income families in rural areas of the state. The funding, made possible through the state of Kansas’ Moderate Income Housing (MIH) program, provides grants or loans to develop housing and support homeownership programs in cities or counties with populations of less than 60,000.

Combined with the amount leveraged by each community to support the proposed initiatives, the awards represent a total investment of $4.3 million and a net gain of 32 affordable, quality housing units, primarily in the southwest region of the state. An additional MIH funding announcement – coupled with Kansas Housing Investor Tax Credit (KHITC) program applications – will be announced in December.

This year’s awards will:

  • renovate three dilapidated Bucklin (population: 727) homes into rental units,
  • help construct four duplex units in Greensburg (778) and Kinsley (1,467),
  • provide gap financing for the construction of 16 single-family homes in Liberal (19,025), and
  • convert a historic building in downtown Moundridge (2,121) into five rental apartments.
