Mission

The mission of the Escambia County Housing Finance Authority, (“ECHFA”) is to help alleviate the shortage of affordable homes available to persons of moderate, middle and low income which will provide them with safe, sanitary and decent housing; and to assist in making capital available for the financing of construction, purchase, reconstruction or rehabilitation of such homes for such persons at interest rates which they can afford.
 
The ECHFA is able to assist future first-time homebuyers by planning and budgeting.  Budgeting is one of the most important activities undertaken by governments.  The budget is a plan of financial operation embodying an estimate of proposed expenditures for a given period and the proposed means of financing them and is the primary tool in allocating the ECHFA’s financial resources to programs and services.  Specifically, the ECHFA’s budget serves as a policy making tool, a management tool, a financial tool, and a communication tool.  The end result should be a balanced budget that has been well planned and communicated.  Accordingly, the attached Fiscal Year 2011-2012 Annual Budget* of Escambia County Housing Finance Authority was adopted at a regularly scheduled meeting on September 13, 2011 by Resolution No. 2011-05.
