The Birches at Esopus (Esopus, NY), Developed by Birchez Associates LLC

Welcome

NYSAFAH'S NYC OFFICE HAS MOVED!  OUR NEW ADDRESS IS 242 W. 36TH STREET, 3RD FLOOR, NEW YORK, NY 10018.  TELEPHONE, FAX AND EMAIL REMAIN UNCHANGED.

Formed in 1998, the New York State Association for Affordable Housing (NYSAFAH) is the trade association for New York’s affordable housing industry statewide. Our 300 members include for-profit and nonprofit developers, lenders, investors, syndicators, attorneys, architects and others active in the financing, construction, and operation of affordable housing. Together, NYSAFAH’s members are responsible for virtually all of the housing built in New York State with federal, state, or local subsidies.

NYSAFAH  advocates for policies, legislation and appropriations at the local, state and federal level that promote our industry’s interests. Early victories include the creation of two new state programs, the Homes for Working Families Program and the New York State Low Income Housing Tax Credit (SLIHC). In 2005, our lobbying efforts resulted in the Property Tax Assessment Reform Act, which requires assessors to use the income approach to assess affordable projects.
