Centre County Housing 10:53 pm
There’s a new option in the Centre County housing market and it’s aimed at developers who build the houses.
Housing is certainly in the news now, whether it’s the rising cost of new homes, or COVID relief packages for housing assistance or, what’s been talked about for decades in Centre County: Affordable housing.
A new program is being rolled out this week.
Most affordable housing programs provide financial assistance for first time home buyers, or those who need help paying bills.
The new program has a different approach.
“This new program, known as Construction and Acquisition for Sustainable Housing, otherwise known as the CASH program, will hopefully provide meaningful funds for construction of new rental or owner-occupied housing,” says Centre County Planning Director Ray Stolinas.
