Land Bank and YNDC Complete Groundbreakings for New Homes in Struthers, Campbell and Sebring

The Mahoning County Land Bank and YNDC have completed groundbreakings on new homes in the City of Struthers, City of Campbell, and Village of Sebring in the month of June. These projects build off ongoing work of the Land Bank and YNDC in these communities that include demolition, brownfield remediation, property acquisition, home repair, and housing counseling.

The homes will have at least three bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open concept living, kitchen, and dining area, first floor laundry room, front porch, and two-car garage. Up to $18,000 in down payment assistance will be available for eligible homebuyers through a partnership with Huntington Bank.

The new home construction is made possible by a grant award to the Mahoning County Land Bank from the Ohio Department of Development’s Welcome Home Ohio grant program. The vacant lots were assembled by the Mahoning County Land Bank. The builder for the project is Joe Koch Construction. The projects also has support from the City of Struthers, City of Campbell, and Village of Sebring.

The new homes will be listed for sale as they approach completion.
