Neighborhood Stabilization Program

The Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) is a federal program that was established for the purpose of stabilizing communities that have suffered from foreclosures and abandonment. Through the purchase and redevelopment of foreclosed and abandoned homes and residential properties, the goal of the program is being realized.

Under NSP1, as authorized under the Housing and Economic Recovery Act (HERA) of 2008, the City of San José received $5.6 million. Under NSP2, as authorized under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, the Housing Trust Fund of Santa Clara, the City of San José, and Neighborhood Housing Services Silicon Valley received $25 million.

In addition to purchasing, rehabilitating, and reselling foreclosed properties in targeted areas, NSP2 also provides secondary financing for income-eligible individuals. A minimum of 25% of the funds will be used to acquire and rehabilitate rental housing for individuals and families whose incomes do not exceed 50% of the area median income.
