DETROIT LAND BANK AUTHORITY
from Greenprint Detroit
by yiyuan_wang
The Detroit Land Bank Authority (DLBA) is a public authority that owns and manages approximately 100,000 parcels of property in the City of Detroit, making it the city’s largest landowner. With the mission of returning the city’s blighted and vacant properties to productive use, the DLBA utilizes a variety of sales programs to make homeownership and land purchases accessible to Detroiters.
The sales programs that are currently available and highlighted in the Greenprint toolkit include side lots, accessory structure lots, oversized lots, neighborhood lots, infill lots, and homestead lots. Each of these lot types come with their own rules, guidelines, and opportunities which we hope to highlight in the following pages.
