The Aspen-Pitkin County Housing Authority launched a home Rightsizing Pilot Program for those living in deed-restricted housing who want to swap units based on need.

It allows for the purchase and sale of deed-restricted properties between two owners as co-applicants to increase the number of bedrooms available to a qualified owner of a smaller property and decrease the number of bedrooms available to the owner of a larger property.

“Rightsizing” means the voluntary purchase and sale of deed restricted properties between two owners as co-applicants for the purpose of increasing the number of bedrooms available to a qualified owner of a smaller property and decreasing the number of bedrooms available to the owner of a larger property.  

APCHA will not identify or match co-applicants. APCHA will review applications for rightsizing on a first come, first serve basis. Applications that are within the Aspen Village Subdivision or the Lazy Glen Subdivision are exempt from this limitation.  

• Submit an application for rightsizing
  

Criteria for qualifying under the Rightsizing Pilot Program can be found in the APCHA Regulations
