Inspections and Compliance

​When building safe, quality, affordable homes and units, financing and construction go hand-in-hand. KHC's Design and Construction Review Department has authority to oversee the construction of housing produced with Kentucky Housing financial assistance. To help guide builders, ​architects, nonprofit organizations and other involved in the construction process, the Design and Construction department offers construction information as well as forms and checklists.
