The Department of Housing and Community Development remains committed to expanding homeownership opportunities through strategic investments in partnership with the Dallas Housing Acquisition and Development Corporation (Land Bank Program),  the Land Transfer Program,​ and the Department Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA).

These initiatives provide essential funding for construction and development, with the key requirement that newly built homes are sold to income-qualified buyers. To ensure that these affordable housing opportunities are accessible to those who need them most, the city takes responsibility for verifying each buyer's income once a home is completed.
