Land Bank and YNDC Partner to Revitalize Tax Delinquent Vacant Homes


Monday, August 17, 2015

In early 2015, YNDC and the Mahoning County Land Bank began a partnership to rehabilitate tax delinquent vacant homes throughout the City of Youngstown.

Through the partnership the Land Bank acquires the property through tax foreclosure. The property is then rehabilitated by YNDC and sold to a homeowner. The first property completed was 778 Sherwood Avenue, which was rehabilitated this spring and recently sold. The second property located at 3215 Neosho Road is currently being rehabilitated and many more tax delinquent vacant homes are in tax foreclosure and will be renovated by YNDC once the Land Bank acquires them.
