This collaborative business is proof of what can be accomplished through collective action. Select has found a great home with Buyers Access.

The Housing Partnership Network (HPN), an award-winning national network of affordable housing developers, operators, and capital providers is pleased to announce its sale of HPN Select, a national procurement company serving many of the industry’s premier mission-driven affordable housing owners and operators, to Buyers Access, the leading multifamily group purchasing organization (GPO) in the United States.

HPN Select, one of the Housing Partnership Network’s successful and innovative social mission enterprises, was built and owned by HPN and a group of its members/customers beginning in 2015. “The sale of HPN Select to Buyers Access is the culmination of a period of building steady growth and strong fundamentals of the business” said Chuck Wehrwein, COO and EVP for HPN. He added, “this collaborative business is proof of what can be accomplished through collective action. Select has found a great home with Buyers Access.”

Buyers Access is one of the largest group purchasing organizations in the multifamily space, representing approximately 950,000 units, and sourcing products/services for owners and operators from more than 60 supplier partners. With this new partnership, Buyers Access will also become the preferred group purchasing organization for HPN members, and this acquisition will expand opportunities for affordable housing owners and operators to leverage buying power, reduce operating expenses, and generate more efficiencies (including more cost effectively buying green, healthy and sustainable products), all while supporting their unique missions.

“The acquisition of HPN Select is an extremely accretive and synergistic opportunity and will create considerable value-add to our customers and supplier partners, while substantially expanding our footprint in Affordable Housing,” Dan Haefner, President & CEO of Buyers Access said. “We are looking forward to a long and positive partnership with HPN and its network of members.”

“We are proud of the growth and success of HPN Select, and delighted about its acquisition by Buyers Access. We look forward to working together with the team at Buyers Access, and how this new partnership will continue to expand and enhance services and opportunities for our members,” said Tom Bledsoe, President and CEO of HPN.
