  BFJ Planning’s professionals have extensive experience in providing affordable housing planning and administration services to public and private sector clients for affordable housing projects located throughout the State of New Jersey. We have enabled our private sector clients to realize increased profitability, substantial cost savings, and expedited project implementation by leveraging our detailed affordable housing regulatory and design knowledge to maximize the unit count and square footage of the project while minimizing costs, and through identifying the most expedient pathway to obtain project approvals. Similarly, our public sector services apply our substantial experience in preparing housing plan elements, fair share plans, vacant land adjustments, build-out analyses, and expert testimony before the superior court in order to prepare housing plan elements and fair share plans that are both compliant from a regulatory perspective and compatible with the community’s goals and vision. Please feel free to contact us to discuss your goals and vision for your affordable housing projects and programs.
