BA-PIRC Partnership with
Brownsville Affordable Homeownership Corporation
Brownsville, TX

Brownsville Affordable Homeownership Corporation (BAHC) is a non-profit developer sponsored by the City of Brownsville TX through their receipt of U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Housing Opportunities Made Equal (HOME) program funding.

BAHC contacted Building America Industrialized Housing Partnership in late 2007. Gate 1 activities resulted in an improvement package designed to qualify BAHC homes for the BuildersChallenge. Although BAHC’s desire to participate in Building America’s new community goal of 50% WHSES remains undetermined at this time, further communications with this partner outlining a gas and electric path to 50% WHSES is expected.
