Small Landlord Fund

The Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) of Pittsburgh administers the Small Landlord Fund program provides 0% interest loans, up to $20,000 per unit to landlords with ten or fewer units for repairs and upgrades, with the goal to preserve existing affordable rental housing and/or to convert market rate and vacant housing to affordable housing in the City of Pittsburgh.

The borrower must agree to rent units to Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) holders or households at 80% of Area Median Income or below, during a required affordability period. The affordability period will remain in effect until the loan expiration date, which will come after 10 or 15 years depending on the loan amount.
