DevelopME Lunch & Learn – Beginning a Development Relationship with MaineHousing
MaineHousing Senior Director of Finance and Lending, Adam Krea, and Director of Development, Mark Wiesendanger, will discuss new programs at MaineHousing that may be of interest to developers curious about working in the affordable housing field. These programs have proven successful with new development partners due to less stringent funding sources, small project sizes, and more overall flexibility. Join them in a conversation about these new programs as well as planned technical assistance resources for newer developers – all with an eye towards creating new relationships and partnerships to help reduce Maine’s housing shortage.
