LIMIT 3 pages The HOPE 3 Program was a Grant received for three years by which the CD Department acquired 90+ houses and sold those homes to qualified, first-time qualified. This Grant was closed -out in October 2002. The CD Department occasionally takes ownership of properties in the HOPE 3 Program, due to a buy-back or foreclosure of HOPE 3 previously sold homes. During the period of ownership by the Department, It is necessary to maintain the f properties by making repairs, mowing the yards, and just doing general upkeep of the homes. The Property Management funds that are being requested are proceed funds from loan payments to the HOPE 3 Program. This application is just for Board approval to continue to use funds to maintain the properties until sold to a new homeowner. These homes are also used for temporary relocation of clients in other programs and save relocation expenses to other programs In the interim while homes are awaiting new homebuyers. The HOPE 3 Program also allowed for a Replacement Reserve Account to assist first-time HOPE 3 homeowners with major repairs that could possibly come up that would be an undue burden to low-income homeowners. This request is to continue to have a Replacement Reserve Account. The HOPE 3 homeowner must qualify to be assisted from this funding source. At FY 2005-2006 Funding Request HOPE 3 Property Mgt.
