Main RIHF fund

The main part of the Rural and Islands Housing Funds (RIHF) can help you to:

  • build new homes for affordable rent or sale
  • make empty homes ready to rent or sell
  • change buildings that've been used for business into homes

The money from this fund must be used for costs you'll pay once e.g. the building or renovation work that's needed. These are called 'capital costs'.

Homes for rent

Homes funded by the main Rural and Islands Housing Fund must always be rented at an affordable rate.
