January 10, 2012 – (RealEstateRama) — The City of Springfield has issued Requests for Proposals (RFP’s) for purchase and redevelopment of three historic homes in the Maple Street area.

Each is being offered for a minimum price of one thousand dollars, and each has $25,000 of Community Development Block Grant assistance available for exterior restoration.
