Rental Acquisition Program

The Sandwich Housing Authority currently owns one single family home which is rented out to a qualified family and is actively seeking to purchase additional single or multi-family housing units which could be converted to affordable rental units for moderate income families including Town employees and other qualified families.

This project has received $235,000 in Community Preservation Act funding which will be used as down payment money to acquire 1-3 homes.  The balance of the acquisition cost for each home would be funded through an SHA mortgage with a commercial bank which would be repaid through the rental revenue generated by each property.

These properties will continue to be owned and operated by the Sandwich Housing Authority in perpetuity.

For more information on this program, or if a resident would like to to discuss a possible sale to the SHA, please contact the SHA offices at (508) 833-4979.
