500+ Program 

The City of Milwaukee will offer first consideration to interested homebuyers who live or owns within 500 feet of a City owned property and will occupy the property. This consideration will be offered for the first 30 days of the listing of a property. If you live or own within 500 feet of a City owned property you can also refer someone and they’ll qualify under this program with your referral. 

Please also note:
Offers will be evaluated by purchase price.

Within the first 30 days, first consideration will be given to buyers with the 500+ notice.
