The Boulder Market Center of Keller Williams Realty (3005 Center Green Dr., #100, Boulder) announced today that Realtor Evie Cohen is a participating Realtor in
the affordable homeownership program offered through BoulderCounty.
Before becoming a Realtor, Cohen worked for Wonderland Homes, which developed Anna's Farm in Lafayette, Colo. The builder was required by the City of Lafayette and Boulder County to offer a certain percentage of homes in an "affordable" price range in order to get permits. The City of Lafayette required that 10 percent of Anna's Farm's homes be in this price range.
"Very few residents in Boulder County know of this program," commented Cohen. "Prospective home buyers can have the pride of owning a house in a great neighborhood that they wouldn't be able to afford otherwise."
Purchasers in the affordable homes program must have income and assets below
specified limits. Most of Boulder County's programs require permanent affordability of the homes, meaning the purchaser agrees to make the home available to the next qualified buyer when the house is sold.
"This program increases the economic diversity within the neighborhoods of Boulder County," finished Cohen.
