Two Rivers Community Land Trust

A Community Land Trust is a private nonprofit organization created to acquire and hold land for the benefit of a community while providing access to permanently affordable housing.

Two Rivers CLT acquires and rehabilitates existing homes and in some instances constructs new homes. Two Rivers has 56 homes across the St. Croix River Valley. Communities include: Andover, Bayport, Blaine, Cottage Grove, Forest Lake, Oakdale, St Paul Park, Stillwater, and Spring Lake Park.

Buyers can find a reasonably priced home in good condition with Two Rivers. A CLT acquires land and removes it from the speculative, for-profit, real estate market and holds it "in trust". Qualified buyers purchase the home but not the land, paying instead a small ground lease fee. This is part of how the home is affordable. Click here to view program details.
