Northwest Minnesota Housing Cooperative

The Northwest Minnesota Housing Cooperative (NMHC) is a construction company that is owned by both local contractors and various material suppliers in Northwest Minnesota communities. The goals of the NMHC are fourfold:

Building quality homes
Bringing affordable housing to the area
Providing year-round work for local cooperative members
Supporting the housing industry by giving savings back to local members

The NMHC is building homes in six communities in Northwest Minnesota: Bagley, Crookston, Detroit Lakes, Fosston, Thief River Falls and Warroad. Most homes are built in new development areas in order to maintain a high market value on constructed houses and to pass on the investment savings to the homeowner. Since 1998, 119 homes have been built by the NMHC, with 57 being purchased by first time homebuyers. Overall, $15.8 million is invested in Northwest Minnesota.

The Northwest Minnesota Housing Cooperative was created through a joint effort between the Midwest Minnesota Community Development Corporation (MMCDC) and USDA - Rural Development. For additional information, links and photographs, please view the website by visiting http://www.nmhchomes.com/.
