180 AFFORDABLE APARTMENTS OPENING IN GREENVILLE’S BEREA AREA

Developers are preparing to open a 180-unit affordable apartment complex on a 40-acre Berea property northeast of the city of Greenville.

The Sullivan development off of Sulphur Springs Road will be attainable to people making 60 percent of the area median income, or a family of four that makes $51,000 a year. Developers Drew Schaumber and Holly Douglas said there will also be flexibility to average out the incomes across the development, so having some residents who exceed the 60 percent threshold will allow for tenants who earn less. The development will accept housing vouchers, making the apartments accessible to a wider population.
