As National Homeownership Month comes to a close, we’re reflecting on what homeownership means to families in Northern Arizona. One of our Pre-Purchase Assistance clients put it best: “I have a place that we can call our own, to make memories, to build a family and have roots in the city we love.” For many, owning a home brings stability, strengthens connections, and helps individuals and families stay rooted in the communities they love—without having to relocate in search of affordability. We’re proud to have helped more than 480 Northern Arizona households become homeowners—and counting!

Building opportunities for sustainable, affordable housing in northern Arizona.
About us
Housing Solutions of Northern Arizona is a nonprofit housing organization, founded as the Affordable Housing Coalition in 1990 through the grassroots efforts of local citizens concerned about the lack of affordable housing in the Flagstaff community. We expanded from an advocacy organization to one that focuses on programs designed to help local residents identify and maintain safe, decent, and affordable housing.

Congratulations to Housing Solutions of Northern Arizona on today's Ribbon-Cutting of 'Oak Wash Homes' in the City of Cottonwood, Arizona. ADOH funded $5.8 million toward the acquisition and conversion of the Verde Valley Inn at 1089 AZ Route 260 in Cottonwood into 32 permanent affordable apartments for households experiencing homelessness in the Verde Valley! For these first five years, Oak Wash Homes will provide Permanent Supportive Housing for homeless individuals/families in the Cottonwood community. For years 6-40, it will provide affordable apartments for low-income households earning up to 60% of the Area Median Income in Yavapai County. All tenants will sign leases which can be renewed. Just take a look at these beautiful, newly-finished, affordable apartment homes! Katherine Blodgett, Administrator for ADOH's Community Development & Revitalization Programs attended today's event helping highlight the importance of having permanent affordable housing available to those transitioning from homelessness.
