MCO & Associates Inc. is a recognized champion of affordable housing
in Massachusetts. Mark O’Hagan, principal, has been dedicated to
developing and marketing affordable communities since 1989. He has
been involved in more than 20 communities in suburban Boston and is
responsible for the creation of nearly 750 homes. He is widely
recognized for his expertise in all aspects of affordable
development and for his ability to provide municipalities with
innovative housing solutions.
MCO & Associates, Inc. has built a reputation by taking a
collaborative approach to creating affordable housing, balancing the
needs of communities, builders, and abutting residents to provide
thoughtful alternatives. Municipalities have sought our assistance
to aid in their production of affordable housing to provide them
with greater control over the comprehensive permit process and 40B
compliance. MCO’s unique ability to partner with communities, handle
all aspects of planning, development, construction and marketing
make it possible to for us offer comprehensive, cost effective
affordable housing solutions.
“We have utilized MCO & Associates to help with a number of
local initiatives. Over the past 10 years, ACHC has worked with
MCO in the development of affordable housing properties and in
finding first time home buyers. MCO helped us create a condo-buydown
program that targets existing housing stock for acquisition to
add to our affordable housing inventory. We have used their
lottery and outreach services through MCO Housing Services on
several projects. Most recently, MCO was selected to build out a
100% affordable project created in historic West Acton Village.
I have found MCO and its staff to be knowledgeable, creative,
and responsive to our needs and goals. We will continue to
partner with them as new affordable opportunities are created.”
