The Greenville Journal has published an article about the Fairview Townhomes project which is a collaboration between Greenville County Redevelopment Authority and the City of Greer.
“Affordable homeownership opportunities have been identified as the “missing middle” part of the housing crisis in communities across the Upstate and nationwide. While affordable rental properties play an important role in housing, homeownership is key to healthy communities and building generational wealth, according to Joe Smith, GCRA’s operations director. He said Fairview also serves another role. ‘It’s a bulwark against gentrification in the neighborhood,’ he said.”
