Build Better Collaborative: Financing Neighborhood-Scale Homes
Advertisement
How does a small housing project actually get financed? Join Build Better Collaborative for a practical conversation on financing duplexes, triplexes, townhomes, backyard cottages, and other neighborhood-scale homes.
This month, we'll hear from two people who work on the money side of building:
Shawna Cuan, CEO and Co-Founder of Sustain Energy Finance
Bennion Gardner, Vice President of Business Services at Cyprus Credit Union and WALC board member
After the presentations, we'll open it up for group conversation. Bring a win or a lesson learned from your own work to share. It's a chance to learn from each other's successes and setbacks and connect with others doing this work.
Who should come: builders, architects, planners, lenders, and anyone working to create more housing options across the Wasatch Front. You don't need to be a finance expert.
