As conditions of the sale, the Historic Savannah Foundation will place an affordable housing covenant on the property for 10 years from the date of purchase. The Historic Savannah Foundation will also place a protective easement on the exterior of the property, which requires HSF’s review and approval of any repairs or alterations to the existing historic building, as well as new construction. The easement is a legally enforceable deed restriction and runs with the property in perpetuity regardless of ownership.
Owner-occupants will be given preference. The buyer is to pay all closing costs. 607 W. 39th Street is to be sold “as is” with no warranty.
