I had never heard of a land trust being used to keep rates affordable - sounds like a very cool model!

True, thanks for clarifying this. But it does help to keep the utilites costs of the houses at actual cost, because the houses are co-owned and non-profit. It is also keeping out private speculation and "landlords" from the market with how the statues/rules are setup.
