Gene Crosby got the help she needed to purchase her dream home a few blocks from where she grew up from Greater Circle Living, a forgivable loan program for people who work in Greater University Circle and choose to buy a home there. After renting for her entire life, she exclaims, "This belongs to me... It's mine!''" From her convenient location in the East 80's along Chester Avenue, she has a 15 minute walk to work at University Hospitals, and a 15-minute drive to just about anywhere.

She received a $15,000 forgivable loan from Greater Circle Living, which she used as a down payment. Then she got busy in her new 3-bedroom, 2.5 bath coach home with a full basement.

Robert Kinsey loves being a homeowner. A 24-year-old software developer at Case Western Reserve University, Robert was able to receive $15,000 towards the purchase of his condo from the Greater Circle Living program.

He also took advantage of their training program for first-time home buyers, and now he's building equity instead of paying rent. He's close to work, he loves his place, and he just adopted a dog, Coco, now that he has a home of his own.
