From November 4 through November 9, 2024, two condo housing units in Frisco, purchased by the Town of Frisco using the Housing Helps program, will be listed for sale for residents working within one mile of the Ten Mile Basin. Frisco’s Housing Helps program includes an option for the Town of Frisco to buy a market value home, place a deed restriction on that home, and make it available for residents working in the area at a lower cost than the Town’s purchase price.

Sale and Housing Lottery Details
These two units are listed for sale from November 4-9, and a completed Summit County Housing Authority (SCHA) application is due by 11:59 pm on November 9 from all interested buyers.
The Town of Frisco is working in cooperation with the Summit Combined Housing Authority (SCHA) and Omni Real Estate to administer a housing lottery system to select potential buyers for these two units, and both units will have lotteries drawn on November 13 to select qualified applicants who will then, based on selection order, have an opportunity to purchase the unit, for which they submitted an application.
Both units are deed restricted with the qualifying household income not to exceed 100% of Summit County’s Area Median Income (AMI), and as an example, a 100% AMI restriction currently allows for a $85,300 income for a 1-person household. The deed restriction also requires that the units to be occupied by a person who at the time of purchase of a unit and at all times during ownership or occupancy of the property, works an average of at least 30 hour per week on an annual basis at a business operating within one mile of the Ten Mile Basin . The qualifying area basically includes Copper; Frisco, including the hospital, County Commons, and the middle school; areas of Dillon; and Farmer’s Corner, including the high school. A map showing this area is available under the Housing Helps section at HousingFrisco.com.
