Tenants to Home Owners

Ashley Taylor is the Assistant Director of Tenants to Home Owners and has a background in real estate. Tenants to Home Owners is a non profit community land trust (CLT) dedicated to stewardship of land and affordability of housing on that land. A CLT retains ownership of acquired land, holding it in trust, and leasing parcels out to individual homeowners or other non profit entities. Low interest loans and grant programs help keep housing costs affordable. Home owners may resell their property and benefit from improvements but the CLT keeps the resale price affordable. Eligibility requirements are based on income, household size and other factors, including completion of a home buyer’s work shop. The CLT provides continuing advice and support for home owners and also maintains 141 affordable rental homes.
