DISTRIBUTION OF PHASE 1

A Collaborative Effort in Housing Development
In Haymeadow's Phase 1, there's a unique distribution of housing units. The Eagle County Housing and Development Authority, with approval from the Board (which also serves as the Board of County Commissioners), has acquired 43 two-bedroom, two-bath units. These units, intended for Eligible Households, come with a price-capped deed restriction and will be sold through The Valley Home Store. Homebuyers interested in these units are in the right place and will learn more in the sections outlined below, including eligibility criteria, application process, and important dates.

Additionally, Phase 1 includes 33 deed-restricted homes co-managed by Haymeadow and the Town of Eagle. This distribution includes 15 units with a resident-occupied deed restriction and the remaining 18 with a price-capped deed restriction. The initial sale process for these homes will be announced at a future date. For reservations or general inquiries about these 33 units, please visit haymeadow.com/contact.
