In a recent government meeting, officials announced the launch of a housing lottery for 20 condominium units in Revere, Massachusetts, in collaboration with Mass Housing. The initiative aims to provide affordable housing options, with a specific focus on supporting veterans.

Eden Edwards and Michael Abow, representatives from a Boston real estate brokerage, outlined the details of the lottery, noting that two of the units are reserved for veterans. However, due to a lack of applications from veterans thus far, the city plans to extend the application process to ensure these units are filled.

The lottery will proceed with 18 units available for general applicants, with city officials, including Mayor Patrick Keef and representatives from the Revere Housing Authority and the Affordable Housing Trust Fund, participating in the selection process. This initiative reflects the city's ongoing commitment to addressing housing needs and promoting inclusivity within the community.
