Who is HDF and how are they selling homes in Westport for $275,000 dollars? How does that not undermine property values in town? I looked them up and read that they are a nonprofit that has done great work for the city of Bridgeport. Sure, that’s what I want our town to emulate.
Sharon, could you please clarify? Are you claiming that a single affordably priced 1,000 square foot house, on a one-tenth acre lot, will somehow undermine property values throughout town? (I’m not sure how many 1,000 square foot houses there are in Westport.) Or are you claiming that a house sold to a family with the surname Martinez will undermine the property values in town?
