Blogging the Land Trust

Welcome everyone to the Land Trust's new blogging home! Here you will be able to find out the latest news around the Land Trust, as well as pick up some cool and useful housing tips and news.

For those who aren't too familiar with the Land Trust, here's a run down of what we're about:
  • The Land Trust is a non-profit membership organization that increases homeownership opportunities for low and moderate income families in Cleveland.
  • By using both private and public funds, the Land Trust lowers the price of new and substantially rehabbed homes for our clients.
  • With every Land Trust home, we work closely with the buyer providing extensive one-on-one pre-purchase support and making sure he/she receives a prime mortgage rate.
  • Through a land lease agreement, which does provide the homeowner with secure and private access to the property, our homes remain affordable for not only the first buyer, but subsequent buyers as well.
  • For more information on the Land Trusts' method of homeownership, please visit our website at www.ccLandTrust.org

As I get this blog up and running I'll get you up-to-date on all that's happened with The Green Cottages, our affordable, single family, green housing development in the Cleveland EcoVillage, shed some light on the Land Trusts' future plans, offer some green building tips and provide you with useful housing news.

So check in with me every week to hear what's going on and please encourage your friends, family and co-workers to follow as well!

Talk with you soon,
