Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
THE ORGANIZATION, A COMMUNITY LAND TRUST (CLT), ACHIEVES PERMANENT, LONG TERM HOUSING AFFORDABILITY THROUGH THE USE OF GROUND LEASES. CLT HOMEBUYERS PURCHASE ONLY THE HOUSE, AND ENTER INTO A 99 YEAR GROUND LEASE WITH THE ORGANIZATION FOR THE EXCLUSIVE USE OF THE LAND. THE ORGANIZATION'S GROUND LEASE STATES THAT WHEN A HOMEOWNER DECIDES TO SELL THEIR HOME, THE HOUSE IS SOLD TO ANOTHER LOW TO MODERATE INCOME HOUSEHOLD FOR THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE PRICE PLUS 25% OF ANY APPRECIATION IN THE HOME'S VALUE. BY LIMITING MARKET APPRECIATION, PERMANENT AFFORDABILITY IS ENSURED AND INITIAL SUBSIDIES INVESTED IN MAKING THE HOME AFFORDABLE ARE SPREAD ACROSS GENERATIONS OF LOW TO MODERATE INCOME HOMEBUYERS. MOST IMPORTANTLY, THIS AFFORDABLE HOUSING OPTION GIVES HOUSEHOLDS THAT COULD OTHERWISE ONLY AFFFORD TO RENT THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ALL OF THE BENEFITS OF HOMEOWNERSHIP STABILITY, SECURITY, TAX BENEFITS, AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO EARN EQUITY AND APPRECIATION IN REAL ESTATE THAT IS NOT AVAILABLE THROUGH RENTING.
