The Dream of Homeownership
is 
Within Reach

Community Land Trust (CLT) homes make ownership possible for people who might otherwise be priced out of the market, without sacrificing quality or long-term stability.

​

KEY BENEFITS OF CLT HOMEOWNERSHIP

​

  • Affordability that lasts - homes are sold at below market rate and remain affordable for future buyers.

  • Build equity - Homeowners build equity and can keep a portion of the homes increased value when selling the house.

  • Generational wealth - The home and its investment can be inherited by family members.

  • Security & stability - Enjoy the pride and independence of owning your home.

  • Ongoing support - CLTs offer a stewardship program to help with navigating homeownership challenges.

  • Healthy, safe housing - Homes meet quality standards and are located in communities where people can thrive.
