Attainable Housing Program
The local Kinsmen/Kinette Clubs are facilitating this “Attainable Housing Program” which will offer “Deserving and Financially Qualified” buyers an opportunity to buy a brand new house with No Down payment. The “Attainable Housing Program” will be giving these people the required 9% ($30,000 - $40,000) down payment by way of a non-refundable down payment. The goal of which is to build 30 housing units this year in “Meadowlands by the Park”. They will be of single family and duplex construction. By supporting this program, there will be an additional 1% that will be invested in community programs by the Kinsmen and Kinette Clubs of Stettler from program funding.
