Participation in this program is by invitation only.

Welcome to our homeownership initiative information page.

We're excited to share details about an exclusive opportunity for select Cook Inlet Housing Authority residents.

Because this program is by invitation only and specifically for current residents of certain properties, we've protected the program information with a simple resident verification process. This ensures that program details reach our intended audience.

Please complete the brief verification below to access information about this homeownership opportunity.

Resident Verification

Are you over 18 years of age?

When Cook Inlet Housing Authority (CIHA) built the Mountain View Village I development, it was pre-determined that the 12 single family homes of this development, after a set period of operation as affordable housing, would be offered for private sale to the current residents.

We realize that you will have a lot of questions about this opportunity including what is involved, what kind of timeline, and what to do if you do not want to purchase your rental home and become a homeowner.

Cook Inlet Housing will be hosting an informational meeting on Wednesday, April xx at 6:30pm at the Jewel Jones Community Center located at 185 Ridgeline Terrace in Mountain View, for you and any family members that you would like to bring along. At the informational meeting we will cover the next steps, timelines, and items for you to consider as you make your decision. There will also be time for your questions. We are inviting the 12 Mountain View Village I, single family home households who are eligible for this offer to the informational meeting.

Refreshments will be served. Please call your Community Director, Drew County, 907-793-3744, to RSVP, by April xx. Let us know the number of people who will attend with you so that we will have enough seating available and food for everyone or let us know if you are unable to attend.

Finally, we want to assure you that you are under no obligation to purchase your rental home. This is an opportunity that you might be interested in once you have all the information. In the meantime, nothing about your residency will change and if you decide not to purchase your home, you will continue as a renter at your address, because this home sale is only being offered to you.

Respectfully,

Cook Inlet Housing Authority
