1. Introduction

SECTION TWO

PROCEDURES

The City of Greenville, in partnership with Pitt Community College and local private stakeholders, is implementing the

50-in-10 Affordable Housing Initiative, which aims to construct 50 affordable homes in and around the West

Greenville area over the next ten years. As part of this initiative, the first three homes are currently under construction

on Davis and Cherry Streets, each consisting of three bedrooms and two bathrooms with an approximate size of 1,300

to 1,500 square feet.

To support this effort, the city is soliciting proposals from qualified real estate brokers and firms to provide

professional brokerage services for the marketing and sale of these homes. The intent is to enter into a Professional

Services Contract with the selected firm(s) for a period of one year to provide real estate services as outlined in this

Request for Proposal (RFP).

2. Background

The 50-in-10 Affordable Housing Initiative reflects the City’s commitment to increasing access to safe, decent, and

affordable housing while fostering neighborhood revitalization in West Greenville. This initiative represents a

collaborative effort between the City of Greenville, Pitt Community College, and local partners to create long-term

housing opportunities for low-to-moderate income households.

The success of the initiative depends not only on the construction of quality homes but also on the effective marketing

and sale of those properties to qualified buyers. Licensed real estate professionals with knowledge of the local market

are essential to ensuring that homes reach the intended buyers and that transactions are completed efficiently and in

compliance with program goals. The broker(s)/firm(s) selected through this RFP will play an integral role in advancing

the City’s housing strategy by supporting outreach, providing market expertise, and facilitating smooth property

transactions.

3. Description of Services (Scope of Work)

To achieve the City’s goals and utilize the consultants’ experience to the best degree possible, the City of

Greenville will require the following:

A. SCOPE OF SERVICES

The successful firm(s) or individual(s) shall agree to a contract with the City to provide the following:

1. 1. Perform market analysis
