What is a Deed-Restriction?
Deed-Restrictions are stipulations written into a deed of a property and recorded as a restrictive covenant. Each restrictive covenant is unique to the property. Summit County’s main goal is to help workforce housing so almost all restrictive covenants include the restriction of working 30+/hrs a week in the county. 
How does it Work? Where?
Great Question, they are all different! If you’re looking to buy or sell a deed-restricted property, each restriction is unique, please reach out for guidance on how to proceed for your specific situation.

Housing Helps
The Housing Helps program is an acquisition program
aimed to help locals purchase a market rate home and
add a deed-restriction to the home in exchange for
funds. The amount the county will pay varies on the level
of deed-restriction, the market, and how well the home
meets the needs of the community. If these homes come
up for re-sale, the majority of them are open to investors
as long as the tenant meets the requirement of working
30+/hrs/wk and no appreciation cap. All restrictions are
different so reading the home’s specific covenant is the
best route to learn more.
