Additional Public Housing inventory available for sale is listed on the City’s website at https://www.wichita.gov/1317/Available-Housing-Department-Properties, and detailed information on each of this weekend’s listings will be added throughout the week leading up to the open houses. Inventory may be added or reduced for each open house event as additional units are available for marketing or as particular units go under contract. Offers will be reviewed on a regular basis between open houses.
Additional information, along with the process for submitting a written offer, is available at https://www.wichita.gov/255/Real-Estate-Services. The City is listing these properties at fair market appraised value instead of traditional real estate market prices, making them more affordable for residents. Questions may be directed to City staff at HousingDevelopment@wichita.gov.
Homes currently on the market have been approved for sale by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
