Mississippi Housing Partnership

The Mississippi Housing Partnership (MHP) is a private 501(c)(3) non-profit housing corporation founded in November 1991, dedicated to providing safe, decent, and affordable housing for low and moderate-income residents of Jackson, Mississippi. Through a collaborative public-private partnership, MHP has successfully increased homeownership rates and stabilized communities in the area by coordinating efforts of various non-profit housing entities.

One of MHP's key initiatives is its First-Time Homebuyer Program, which has helped approximately 430 families achieve homeownership by offering low-interest second mortgage financing combined with first mortgage loans from local banks. The program not only makes home purchasing more affordable but also provides potential buyers with additional assistance for down payments and closing costs, thus further enhancing accessibility to housing for lower-income families.
