The Telegraph Townhomes are permanently affordable through KulshanCLT’s community land trust model.
These homes are made affordable in part using federal funding from the Self-Help Homeownership Opportunity Program (SHOP). Homebuyers must be willing to volunteer 50 hours (or 100 hours for families with two adult heads of household) toward the construction and landscaping of their home prior to closing. Volunteer hours are expected to take place between September and November of 2026.
