We've added a dozen photos to the property listing for 41 Country Way, Barre, the latest home to come through the Housing Acquisition & Rehabilitation Program (HARP), where VHFA acquires foreclosed properties from banks, renovates them, and resells them to income-eligible Vermonters.
The home is priced at $100,000, after a $75,000 grant.
Sherri Mullin and Robin Howe were the final winners in VHFA’s “Five-Week Wellness Challenge.”
Sherri was selected at random from all staff members who participated in Week #5 of the challenge to receive a gift certificate from Healthy Living. Robin was our grand prize winner, getting a day off. (Use it wisely, Robin — at least three hours of cardio.)
The challenge was a progressive fitness program that encourages staff members to make small improvements to their health each week.
An article in yesterday's Valley News takes a look at the tight rental market in the Lebanon/White River Junction area.
“The rental market is really tight,” Upper Valley Housing Coalition Executive Director Anne Duncan Cooley says in the article. “The prices are going up and the supply is tighter and tighter.”
The article confirms findings of "Between a Rock and a Hard Place: Housing and Wages in Vermont," which VHFA published last month.
