Detroit Land Bank Authority (DLBA)
Community Partners program helps organizations purchase houses and/or vacant
land at discounted prices. Community Partners use DLBA-acquired properties for
home rehab projects, urban gardening, green space projects or any use that
enhances the quality of life in neighborhoods. The dataset provides information
on the properties that have been successfully sold by the DLBA to organizations
through the Community Partners program.
The Detroit Land Bank Authority (DLBA)
works directly with individual buyers, as well as Community Partner
organizations and developers to achieve their mission to return the city's
blighted and vacant properties to productive use. They utilize a variety of
sales programs to make homeownership and land purchases accessible to
Detroiters. One of these programs is the Community Partners program.
Each row in the dataset represents a
DLBA-acquired home that has been sold to a community partner and includes data
about the closing date, sale price, and location information such as address, parcel ID, and neighborhood.For more information about the DLBA's
