Description
This is a wealth building opportunity to own a home through the Essex Community Land Trust (ECLT) that may seem to good to be true, but is actually for real. This is more than a home, it's a pathway to stability and homeownership. What allows this home to be as affordable as it is, is a 99-year ground lease with an affordability clause that is applied to the land itself to ensure long-term affordability and stability of the property. This charming home is nestled into the quiet corner of Bloomfield, just steps away from Watsessing Park offering the best of both worlds - convenience and an escape from the hustle and bustle. Located on a tree-lined street with nearby cafes, green space, walking paths, and recreational space in a highly walkable neighborhood. You're just a short distance to downtown Bloomfield, with easy access to NJ Transit and a commute to NYC of 30-40 minutes. Those that are eligible to purchase earn $72,950-$109,942 annually with a 640+ credit score. To further qualify, prospective buyers must attend/register for an 8-hour HUD certified class taking place on Saturday April 11, 2026, starting at 9 am at the Timberlake Charles Empowerment Center, 520 Main St. Suite 1B, East Orange, NJ 07018 (entrance on Prospect St.), go through the ECLT intake process, and be able to qualify for a mortgage to purchase the home itself.
