Solutions to Restore Home Ownership for the Working Middle Class

Reducing Cost to Build = Selling Homes Below Market +  Deed Restrictions to Ensure Homes Always Sell Below Market

PAHA is spearheading two unique home ownership programs dedicated to working middle-class households through:

FEE SIMPLE HOMES
(The Britton Blueprint)

•  Home and Lot Are Sold (FEE SIMPLE = LOT + HOME are    purchased)
•  For households earning around $86,000 to $123,000 annually    (90-120% area median income in Kootenai County)
•  Deed Restrictions Are Recorded with the Deed
•  Newly Launched in 2021 with Fannie Mae Certification

COMMUNITY LAND TRUSTS (CLTS)

•  Only the home is purchased by the buyer
•   Land is owned by a non-profit
•   For households earning around $60,000 to $85,000 annually      (60-89% area median income in Kootenai County)
•   Deed Restrictions run through a land lease to the home
•   Launched in communities across the country over the past 4     decades
