THE AFFORDABLE RENTAL PROGRAM AND HOUSE RECYCLING PROGRAM - THE AFFORDABLE RENTAL PROGRAM IS A SCATTERED SITE PROGRAM OF AFFORDABLE YEAR-ROUND RENTAL HOMES AVAILABLE TO LOW, MODERATE AND MIDDLE-INCOME NANTUCKET RESIDENTS. MOST OF THESE HOMES HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED THROUGH THE HOUSE RECYCLING PROGRAM, AND SOME WERE NEWLY CONSTRUCTED. HOUSE RECYCLING IS AN INNOVATIVE AND COST-EFFECTIVE PROGRAM WHERE PRIVATE INDIVIDUALS DONATE UNWANTED BUT STRUCTURALLY SOUND DWELLINGS TO HOUSING NANTUCKET (HN). HN RELOCATES BUILDINGS TO HN'S LAND, WHICH IS PERMANENTLY DEED-RESTRICTED FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING PURPOSES. THEN HN REHABILITATES AND RENTS THE DWELLINGS AT AFFORDABLE RATES TO INCOME-QUALIFIED YEAR-ROUND NANTUCKET RESIDENTS. DWELLINGS RANGE FROM ONE-BEDROOM COTTAGES TO FOUR-BEDROOM HOMES. PROPERTIES ARE REGULARLY INSPECTED AND MAINTAINED TO ENSURE QUALITY LIVING ENVIRONMENTS FOR TENANTS.

THE NANTUCKET HOUSING NEEDS COVENANT PROGRAM - (THE COVENANT PROGRAM) CREATES SCATTERED SITE, MIDDLE INCOME HOME-OWNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES. TO INCENTIVIZE THE INITIAL CREATION OF A COVENANT HOME, PRIVATE PROPERTY OWNERS ARE ALLOWED ZONING RELIEF WHICH ENABLES THEM TO SELL A PORTION OF THEIR LAND THAT IS OTHERWISE NOT SUB-DIVIDABLE. IN EXCHANGE, THE OWNERS RECORD A DEED RESTRICTION WHICH PERMANENTLY RESTRICTS OWNERSHIP TO QUALIFIED YEAR-ROUND ISLANDERS. COVENANT HOME PURCHASERS MUST BE YEAR-ROUND RESIDENTS EARNING LESS THAN 150% OF THE AREA MEDIAN INCOME. THE TRANSACTION PRICE OF A COVENANT HOME MUST BE BELOW THE MAXIMUM SALE PRICE, WHICH IS RESET ANNUALLY AND DETERMINED BY AN AFFORDABILITY FORMULA. COVENANT HOMEOWNERS ARE SUBJECT TO A RESIDENCY/OCCUPANCY REQUIREMENT AS WELL AS RESALE RESTRICTIONS.
