WELCOME HOME: Homebuyer program celebrates latest project
For most homebuyers, the move to a new house is marked by the removal of a “for sale” sign and little fanfare. However, for first-time homebuyers Emmalee Mitchell and Daniel Bautista, their move was heralded by a ribbon cutting the celebration of a home more than a year in the making.
The house, located at 925 Eighth St., is the second home built as part of the Lincoln Central Neighborhood Homebuyer Program. Its completion was celebrated with a ribbon-cutting ceremony and open house on Thursday.
Mitchell and Bautista expect to close the deal today, and Mitchell said they were excited to see the completed house.
