Application Review Process
All applications are reviewed monthly by the CIC Property Review Committee. To be included in a monthly review, your application must be received no later than the 1st of the month. You will receive a response once your application has been reviewed and should have a decision regarding its approval or denial within 30-45 days. Once the application has been reviewed, the next steps are:
SINGLE-FAMILY HOME DEVELOPMENT:
If your application is approved, you will receive a contract for the purchase and redevelopment of the property and a target closing date. Terms regarding price and development time frames will be included in this contract. If you want to schedule a time to view the interior of a property, this will take place after application approval, but before the closing of the property.
MULTI-UNIT, MULTI-PROPERTY, AND COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT:
If your application is accepted, you will be contacted to schedule a date for a live pitch of your development project to the CIC Property Review Committee.
POST-CLOSING PROCEDURES
All purchasers are required to keep the St. Bernard CIC up-to-date on the progress of any improvements ore development. Upon request, the purchasers may be required to give a narrative updates and provide photos of any progress. Upon completion of the development, the purchaser must provide notice to the CIC and provide photos.
