Implemented in carefully planned phases, our program ensures fairness and accessibility for all applicants:

Phase One (April 1 - July 1) prioritizes Baltimore City residents committed to restoring and living in the property as their primary residence.

Phase Two (beginning April 15) identifies properties where applicants have a legacy or familial interest.

Phase Three (beginning July 1) opens up opportunities for future homeowners, community land trusts, and non-profit and for-profit developers.

For current Baltimore residents aiming to make a property their primary residence, Phase One offers a priority application period starting April 1, 2024. During this period:

• Properties earmarked for primary residence will sell for an astonishing $1!

• Applicants must demonstrate proof of available funding of at least $90,000 for renovations.

• A $100 application fee is required, refundable if the application is rejected.
