Governor’s House to Ramona, South Dakota

November 13th, 2008 by Mike Knutson

Congratulations to the people of Ramona, South Dakota for bringing a Governor’s House to their community.

Many of our rural, South Dakota communities have a shortage of affordable housing, and the Governor’s House program is one possible solution to the problem.  As today’s Madison Daily Leader notes, many South Dakota communities have brought Governor’s Houses to their towns by having the local economic development corporation purchase the house, put it on a foundation, and then sell it to a qualifying buyer.  That’s no easy task - but it can be rewarding. 

 

To learn more about how you can purchase a Governor’s House, go to the South Dakota Housing Development Authority’s (SDHDA) website
