The total acquisition for the portfolio was for $2,521,800.00 and the City spent an additional $2,298,200.00 in post-closing covenants resulting in total cost of $4,820,000.00.
The portfolio included a single-family residential property located at 550 North 66th Terrace which has been renovated and now includes updated kitchen appliances, bathroom fixtures, and other interior and exterior repairs using State Housing Initiatives Partnership (“SHIP”) funds in the amount of $143,826.00 and CDBG funds to address emergency repairs in the amount of $3,800.00.
In September 2022, the City publicly promoted the availability of the property for purchase by income-eligible households, at 80% or below the Area Median Income, as part of the Broward County Home Buyer Purchase Assistance Program.
The first appraisal reflected the value of the property to be $390,000.00 and second appraisal reflected the value to be $383,000.00.
Hollywood residents Manuel de Jesus Recendiz Herrera and Daniela Favela Torres submitted a pre-approval letter from a lender and all other required paperwork to the City and Broward County, and are eligible and interested in purchasing the property at the listed amount of $382,194.00, which is the maximum area purchase price per SHIP guidelines.
The City will provide the buyer a mortgage of $70,000.00 in SHIP funds and up to $50,000.00 ILA funds to assist in the purchase of the home.
This resolution requires a 5/7 vote of the total commission to sell the property.
Fiscal Impact:
Approval of this Resolution will have a positive fiscal impact on the City. The sale will generate revenue, eliminate ongoing City maintenance of the property and produce ad valorem taxes.
