Under the resale <br /> provisions, if homebuyers assisted with HOME funds choose to sell their HOME-assisted property <br /> within the HOME Affordability Period,they must sell to qualified low-income buyers and the resale <br /> price will be determined according to a formula that ensures affordability to the new buyer and a <br /> fair return on investment to the original HOME-assisted buyer. <br /> The HOME Affordability Period for homeownership assistance is based on the level of assistance <br /> provided to fund a unit or as direct assistance to a buyer(see the chart below). Direct assistance to <br /> the homebuyer is defined as HOME funding that reduces the purchase price below fair market value <br /> and includes any down payment or subordinate financing provided on behalf of the purchase.
