The program provides interest-free deferred second mortgages and access to below-market priced Affordable Dwelling Units (ADUs) in market-rate developments throughout Fairfax County. Administered by the Fairfax County Redevelopment and Housing Authority (FCRHA) and the Department of Housing and Community Development.
