2025 Affordable Housing Expo

New Yorkers can learn how to “buy better and rent smarter” from experts at the Affordable Housing Expo on Saturday, June 28, presented by the NYC Housing Partnership. Now in its third year, the Affordable Home Expo has given thousands of New Yorkers access to valuable information and help in buying their first home and applying for affordable rental housing in NYC,

The third annual Affordable Housing Expo is free and open to the public from 10:00am to 3:00pm on Saturday, June 28 at the CUNY Graduate Center at 365 Fifth Avenue at 34th Street in Manhattan. There is no charge to attend. To register go to https://HousingExpo25.eventbrite.com 

Capacity is limited. Refreshments will be served.

“We want more New Yorkers to access safe and comfortable affordable homes faster, both first time home buyers and those seeking rentals,” said Jamie Smarr, NYC Housing Partnership. “Experts in home mortgage lending and residential real estate will provide first-time home buyers with market insights, tips and “how to’s” needed to successfully navigate the housing market and home buying process.”

“The Housing Partnership third annual Affordable Housing Expo will take place at a time when historically low vacancy rates and rising housing costs make finding safe, comfortable affordable housing the biggest challenge for so many New Yorkers,” said Mr. Smarr.

“Those seeking affordable rental housing will receive help from the Housing Partnership and NYC HPD on applying for the NYC Affordable Housing Lottery. The Housing Partnership is proud to hold the Affordable Home Expo at a time when New Yorkers say housing affordability is their biggest concern. Last year’s Expo reached capacity and we expect the same on June 28 based on strong registration,” Smarr said.

For four decades the nonprofit Housing Partnership has led relationships among private sector developers and financial institutions and City, State and Federal agencies that created and preserved more than 75,000 low and moderate-income housing units in the five boroughs, leveraging over $7 billion in private financing and utilized more than $500 million in subsidies for affordable housing. This stimulates economic activity that strengthens the social fabric of neighborhoods where people can now live in safe, comfortable, affordable homes.
