JACKSON, Mich. — The city of Jackson recently sold its 100^th vacant side lot, part of a ramped up effort to sell of city own land and houses.

They are doing it through the City-Owned Property Sales Program. Through tax foreclosures and demolitions, the city owned more than 500 properties at the start of the year.

Public information officer Aaron Dimick said they’re in the business of providing city services, not real estate.

“We do spend a lot of time, money and resources on the properties so, we thought it would be good to turn to the community and put these properties up for sale,” Dimick said.
