Program details

How it works

The City says all new residential developments with 50 or more housing units must sell at least 10% of their units at an affordable price for low- to moderate-income residents. The homes remain affordable for a minimum number of years before they can be sold at market rate.

What the money covers

Prospective buyers may qualify for down payment and closing cost assistance. The page does not state a fixed dollar amount for this assistance.

How it helps homeowners

Homeowners can earn equity on the property while the units remain affordable. The program is presented as part of the City’s broader housing programs for residents seeking affordable homeownership.
