A home you can afford. Permanently.

We build new homes in Jacksonville and sell them at prices working families can actually afford.

How it works

You own the home

You hold the deed and build equity, like any homeowner.

The trust owns the land

Taking the land out of the price is what keeps the home affordable.

It stays affordable

The home is sold below market rate, and stays affordable for the next family too.

Built in Jacksonville

New construction in the city's historic neighborhoods.

How the program works

You buy the home, JCLT keeps the land

The buyer purchases the house and signs a long-term ground lease for the land. Taking the land out of the price is what lowers the cost.

Income-qualified households

The program is for households whose income falls within JCLT or funding program limits, shown below.

Owner-occupied only

JCLT homes are for the people who live in them, not investment property.

Permanently affordable

Homes are sold below market rate, and stay affordable for the next family too, generation after generation.

Education and lender review

Homebuyer education and working with a lender or approved financing partner are part of the process.

A partner after closing

JCLT stays involved as a stewardship partner for as long as you own the home.

Who is eligible

  • Household income at or below 80% of Area Median Income
  • No homeownership during the previous three years
  • Mortgage pre-approval
  • An approved eight-hour HUD homebuyer education course

Additional requirements may apply to a particular property or funding source.
