These are available to people who will live in the homes and who make less than 80% of the median income.<\/p>\n<p>These programs are laudable, breathing new life into the neighborhood and improving the quality of housing. However they each are geared toward a specific population. If you aren&#8217;t a member of these groups, don&#8217;t feel left out. There are many other homes in the area and you can rehab one yourself or watch for someone else&#8217;s rehab to come on the market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Condos and rowhouses are perfect for some people &#8211; students who&#8217;d rather study than landscape and fans who use them only occasionally.
