Are well established social housing ventures eligible for loans from the SEF?
Yes. The SEF offers short-term loans to eligible social housing ventures for purchase of property, construction and renovation. Again similar to our financial support for social enterprises, the SEF will work with the housing project to assess the most appropriate mix of support required. This may mean a package that combines a loan with brokerage services for other types of financing or other community assistance as well as any number of direct engagement services.
