A special, social distancing, key dedication took place and was attended by the City of Sisters and members of the Hayden Homes and First Story teams.<br \/>\n\u201cAll three families are the first in their families to own their own home, Duncan said. Two of the three families currently live and work in Sisters. The nonprofit First Story along with NeighborImpact, reached out to the Sisters community to seek applicants and to help prospective homeowners prepare for the responsibilities of homeownership. The first three families are graduates of Neighborlmpact&#8217;s HomeSource Program. Each family is grateful for the safety, health and happiness that owning a home brings.<br \/>\nThe non-profit, First Story, is addressing the affordable housing crisis through an integrated approach that focuses on providing a hand-up to homeownership. First Story, Hayden Homes, Neighborlmpact and the City of Sisters have come together for this special project in order to provide affordable homeownership opportunities in Sisters.<br \/>\nAmong the homes built in the three-phase Hayden Homes community, McKenzie Meadows Village, will be 10 homes dedicated to affordable housing for families qualifying at the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) threshold of 80 percent or below of Adjusted Median Income (AMI). The homes are sold through First Story\u2019s, Hayden Homes\u2019 nonprofit charitable arm, 30-year non-interest loan program.<br \/>\n\u201cWhat we\u2019re doing in Sisters is the largest, most impactful project the nonprofit has ever done, said First Story Executive Director Claire Duncan. The three families received their keys to their First Story homes in the initial phase of the project, which is expected to take three years to complete.<br \/>\nFirst Story\u2019s affordable loan program provides zero-down, zero-interest, 30-year loans to qualified individuals purchasing their first home. The First Story homes are triplex units \u2014 but they are only attached at the garage and do not share a living-space wall, giving them the feel of a single-family detached home. They are 1,058 square feet with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. They come with appliances, air conditioning, fencing and landscaping in place.<br \/>\nFirst Story and Hayden Homes will collaborate on three more homes in 2021.
