Nonprofi t DevNW celebrated the continuing construction of six community land trust homes in Cottage Grove in January, a project which will offer permanent homeownership for low- and middle-income families in the area.

“This particular project was a labor of love and we ran into a lot of hurdles along the way,” said DevNW CEO Emily Reiman at the event.

DevNW was created last year when nonprofi ts Neighborhood for Economic Development Corporation and Corvallis-based Willamette Neighborhood Housing Services united to increase regional impact. The nonprofi t aims to empower communities through a variety of methods such as fi nancial counseling, revitalization projects and assistance programs.

The new homes under construction on Arthur Avenue are being sold to homebuyers below 80 percent of the area median income (AMI).

Cottage Grove’s AMI was estimated to be as high as $47,000 according to U.S. Census Bureau data from 2014-2018.

Eligibility for ownership of the new land trust homes will be dependent on family size and annual income, ranging from an income limit of $36,350 per year for one person to $56,100 for a family of

fi ve.

Buyers may also qualify for up to $25,000 in down payment assistance.

DevNW bought the property several years ago and has nearly completed the process of development, which included securing a land trust model which will enable more affordable housing for potential buyers.

The land trust legally separates the land from the homes, allowing DevNW to retain stewardship over the land and ideally establish a more stable and secure community.

“It’s a good concept and I’m really excited about it,” said Cottage Grove Mayor Jeff Gowing. “We do need housing and this is providing homeownership. It’s proven that if you have more ownership, it’s going to give you a healthier community; people are vested in the community and they’re going to be here for the long haul.”

The land trust model is also meant to encourage a long-term habit of homeownership within the community.

The two-story homes are expected to be completed this summer, four of which will feature three bedrooms and the remaining two a two-bedroom design.

“We hope that these six are the fi rst of more to come,” said Reiman. “We’d like Cottage Grove to have 10 or 20 or 30 permanently affordable homeownership opportunities.”
