Since 1991 Urban Housing Solutions has been developing and managing affordable housing for Nashville’s homeless, low income, and workforce populations. By both constructing new buildings and transforming aging properties, we are changing the “face of affordable housing” and revitalizing depreciated neighborhoods. In partnership with government agencies and nonprofits, we go beyond housing to offer a continuum of care that includes transportation access, medical and mental health support, substance abuse recovery, and civic services.
