Quail Crossing rental-to-condo conversion and tenant protections
Summary
An existing 16-unit rental townhome complex will convert to individually owned condos, giving renters a chance to buy their homes. The owner pledged 180-day sale notices and first right of refusal for tenants — protections beyond what state law requires — but one fixed-income tenant worried she cannot afford to buy or move.

Impact analysis
Units will sell at market rate, which tenants on fixed incomes may not be able to afford; no cost to the city.
The owner gains the ability to sell units, and interested tenants gain a path to homeownership.
Tenants who cannot afford to purchase, particularly those on fixed incomes, could face displacement when units sell.
