MVPO is seeking proposals on behalf of the Land Banks for the construction of new housing units within the region. The construction will occur on vacant parcels owned by the Land Bank or other community partners, which will be at no cost to the contractor. This RFP is designed to identify Contractors with the experience, capacity and willingness to develop and build new Housing units in the region. Houses that are identified for rehab will be bid out based on the specific scope of work to contractors that are pre-qualified through MVPO’s CHIP program. The end user for the units will be families or individuals that have an income equal to or less than 80% of the Annual Median Income. Contractor will not be responsible for identifying the end buyer or selling the home.

Proposals shall be made in compliance with the Ohio Department of Development’s (ODOD) Welcome Home Ohio (WHO) program guidelines and regulations. The main component that applies to your proposal is that each unit must be 1,000 square feet of habitable space in the current program, with the potential to allow for 800 square feet in the next round of funding. All homes will be constructed utilizing building codes associated with the local political jurisdiction. All areas within MVPO’s six county service area are under consideration. You may mark in your proposal which county(ies) you are interested in working with and if there is an impact on price or proposal based on county.
