This project is a Public/Private partnership between the Community Development Department of the City of Billings and Real Estate Dynamics, Inc. The property is owned by the City, and they used Federal HOME Funds to develop the lots. 70% of the homes in the subdivision must be sold to people in the 80% median income and less. This income level qualifies buyers for various forms of cash assistance. To take advantage of this program, buyers must attend a Homebuyers Education Workshop put on by homeWORD of Billings or Beartooth RC&D of Laurel. Once you take the Workshop and qualify for the program, you can take advantage of many assistance programs available, including deducting the lot cost at $25,600 from the total purchase price.
