Cooper Creek Heights features 56 units comprising one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. The apartments serve individuals with incomes of $33,960 or below (for a family of four -- income limits vary based on household size). Rents range from $365 to $650.

The development’s amenities include a playground, exterior seating, covered picnic area with tables and grills, a gazebo, multi-purpose room, exercise room with new equipment, a screened porch and a computer center.

The $7.2 million development was financed in large part by federal and state tax credits awarded by the NC Housing Finance Agency. The Agency finances the statewide construction of affordable rental apartments using federal and state housing credits, low-interest loans, and tax-exempt bond allocations.

In addition, the Agency administers the state’s 25-year-old Housing Trust Fund, which provides loans for development of rental apartments.

“Cooper Creek Heights provides a safe, comfortable and affordable neighborhood for working families in Mocksville and is an attractive asset for the surrounding community,” said Bob Kucab, executive director of the NC Housing Finance Agency.
