Trinidad 4-Unit Properties

Are you worried about the cost of a down payment on buying a property in Washington, DC? Well, there is a new initiative called the DC Open Doors Program that could be a huge help. It is open to anyone with a total income of less than $123,295, and all District neighborhoods are in play. DC realizes that the housing market has skyrocketed and the cost of making a down payment has become out of reach for many of those with a decent income.
