B. Purchase and rehabilitate homes and residential properties

Community Redevelopment Advisory Board Regular Meeting · 2026-05-28 · agenda_item

The City of Winter Park's Community Redevelopment Advisory Board is reviewing a plan to purchase and fix up abandoned or foreclosed homes and residential properties. The goal is to then sell, rent, or redevelop these properties. This initiative is currently under review by the board. The work would likely involve site preparation, rehabilitation of existing structures, and potentially new construction or redevelopment depending on the property's condition. Contractors specializing in home renovation, general contracting, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roofing, painting, and flooring could find opportunities. Suppliers of building materials and equipment would also be needed. Reaching out to the city early in this review process could provide an advantage before specific plans, bids, and permits are finalized.
