But if you think the deal is for you, there are some stipulations.
First, if granted the home, the new owners have to correct any exterior code violations within 180 days, then bring the home up to habitable standards within a year. Then, they must live in the home for five years before it is fully signed over to the new owners. They also must have an income of at least $38,750 per individual and proof of sufficient income to complete repairs that can include unused credit card limits, a gift letter or a bank statement.
Applicants will submit a $25 fee with each application and if approved, provide a credit report.
