Dave's Thoughts On Littlejohn Commons

Because Littlejohn Commons participates in HUD's HOME program for rental housing and the LIHTC program, at least some of the units in this property are set aside for households earning 60% or less of the AMI and rents are capped at the local FMR and in many cases much lower. Depending on the number of HOME-designated units and the type of LIHTC program, additional units may have even lower household income requirements and corresponding lower rent caps.
