Kaleb's Vocation 05-24-09

Housing project in Farroupilha. These condos, unlike public housing in Sacramento, are sold to tennants at very affordable prices. The units are very small and consist of 2 bedrooms and one bath. Upgrades are available at an extra cost to the buyer. One of the owners we met was excited about owning her own home. She got teary-eyed just talking about how much it meant to her to own her own home.
The condos are strategically built to be near shopping centers and to take advantage of community activities...such as churrascos.
