Welcome to Homes Within Reach!<\/span><\/h1>\n

We are a non-profit, community-based organization that creates and preserves affordable homeownership opportunities for working households in suburban Hennepin County.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since 2001,<\/strong> we have helped over 276 workforce families earning less than 80% Area Median Income (AMI) become homeowners by acquiring, remodeling and selling properties through proven Community Land Trust practice (CLT) that:<\/p>\n

><\/strong><\/span> Allows qualified clients to purchase the home and lease the land at a nominal fee.<\/p>\n

><\/span><\/strong> Reduces the mortgage, down payment and closing costs.<\/p>\n

This means that families can more easily purchase a home, retain it for generations, and work in or near their communities. As a result, both our families and communities can rely on affordable homeownership opportunities and a stronger local workforce.\u00a0<\/p>\n
