BOSTON — Nine new income-restricted condominiums in Boston's Dorchester neighborhood are being offered for sale to first-time homebuyers, the city's housing department said Monday.

The homes, at 56 Glenway St. and at 142 and 154 Erie St., include one-, two- and three-bedroom units. Prices depend on household income. Units for buyers earning up to 80% of the area median income are listed at $228,280 for one bedroom, $268,840 for two bedrooms and $309,088 for three. Units for buyers earning between 81% and 100% of the area median are listed at $298,896, $348,088 and $393,120. One two-bedroom unit and one three-bedroom unit are accessible under the Americans with Disabilities Act, the city said.

To qualify for an 80% unit, a one-person household may earn no more than $96,000 a year, and a four-person household no more than $137,100. For a 100% unit, the limits are $120,000 for one person and $171,400 for a household of four. The city said the limits are based on U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development data. Asset limits also apply.

Buyers must be first-time homeowners and must complete an approved homebuyer education course before closing. The units are deed-restricted and must be occupied by their owners, and monthly condo fees apply. The city said Boston residents will be given preference, as will households with one person per bedroom.

The condos are being sold on a first-come, first-served basis to qualified applicants, according to the city. They have hardwood floors, in-unit laundry hookups, central air, fenced backyards and outdoor common space, and some units at 142 Erie St. have private decks.

People with disabilities and those with limited English may request a reasonable accommodation, the city said.
