Virtual event to feature affordable housing in southwest Atlanta

This weekend, a virtual event will feature a look inside three affordable housing properties in Atlanta’s Pittsburgh neighborhood.

The virtual open house is being hosted by the Atlanta Neighborhood Development Partnership and the Atlanta Land Trust.

"Self-Isolating at home? See these homes from the comfort of your computer, tablet or smartphone – virtually tour three affordable homes for sale and learn about the community land trust model which can help you realize your homeownership dreams," a post on the land trust's website reads.

The open house starts at 11 a.m. on Saturday on Facebook Live. It features three properties in Pittsburgh that have been recently built or renovated.

According to the neighborhood development’s website, the land trust model allows buyers to purchase a home, while leasing the land from the Atlanta Land Trust.

"This ensures there will be permanently affordable homes in the neighborhood," according to the website.
