Sen. Bernie Sanders issued a statement this afternoon saying he will "vote against a budget agreement that cuts public housing by $605 million and eliminates financial counseling when homeowners need it most."

VHFA Homeownership Outreach Coordinator Erin Perrin appeared on WBTN-AM's "Real Estate Insights" program this morning.

VHFA has listed for sale a home at 196 Franklin Road, Vernon. The price for the three-bedroom, 1.5 bath house is $105,200, after a $71,800 grant.

Members of the Rockingham Area Community Land Trust (RACLT) in Springfield have voted to dissolve the organization.

Under the proposed plan, the more than 500 affordable housing units owned and managed by RACLT  would go to Windham Housing Trust (WHT), which will continue to serve the tenants.

RACLT cites difficult economic conditions as the reason for the change, which has been under consideration for more than a year.
