Current Project-Based Rental Programs
Rural Development Funded Housing
Affordable apartment homes are within reach in rural Scott County communities at the CDA’s apartment buildings in Jordan and Belle Plaine. The Britland Apartments in Jordan have one, two, and three-bedroom units, and the Belle Haven Apartments in Belle Plaine have efficiency, one and two-bedroom units. Operated with funding from Rural Development, the CDA can rent all units to income-eligible renters below market rate, and some renters can pay 30% of their income toward rent. Off-street parking, community spaces, and on-site laundry are a few of the amenities that make these rental units a great place to call home. Contact us to inquire about these properties.
