The Mahoning County Land Bank and YNDC have broken ground on sixteen new single family homes in multiple locations on the north, south, west, and east sides of the City of Youngstown.
The sixteen new homes will include multiple design models including: a cape cod, two story models, and two ranch models. All 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. The homes will be listed for sale for no more than $180,000 and will include a 100 percent, fifteen year property tax abatement on the new construction. Down payment assistance of $10,000 will be available for eligible homebuyers through the City of Youngstown’s At Home in Youngstown down payment assistance program. Additional downpayment assistance of up to $18,000 is also available to eligible homebuyers through a partnership with Huntington Bank.
This project 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. Mercy Health Youngstown provided a community investment loan to finance the construction of the project. The loan was made at a below market interest rate. The vacant lots were assembled by the Mahoning County Land Bank. The City of Youngstown has provided funding for neighborhood improvements on the target blocks where the new construction will take place. The improvements include new sidewalks, dead street tree removal, tree planting, and other improvements. The builder for the project is Joe Koch Construction. The project also has support from the City of Youngstown, The Raymond John Wean Foundation, and other stakeholders.
