Programs that purchase or accept donations of deteriorating, lower value homes on scattered sites throughout a city in situations where rehabilitation is not feasible and replace them with housing that is safe and livable. Replacement is generally achieved through voluntary acquisition from a willing seller or donor (if the property is owned outright) or from a homeowner requesting demolition assistance in order to make his or her own housing replacement plans financially possible. The objective of housing replacement programs is to increase the availability of quality housing and eliminate the blighting influence of substandard housing.
