OUR VALUES
To us, there are no issues greater than affordable and workforce housing.
We believe in Community
- The majority of our board of directors are neighbors, homeowners, and residents.
- We develop and manage homes for sale and for rent because our neighbors demand both.
- We prioritize relocating our current residents when needing to rehab their homes, and selling to our residents whenever possible.
We believe in Equity
- We build strong partnerships with the city of Durham and other nonprofits to develop special needs rental housing that can provide safe and affordable homes to individuals living with disabilities.
- We also build affordable houses for veterans and seniors.
We believe in Sustainability
- We renovate properties in partnership with residents and local, regional, and national organizations to create tangible improvements for the community.
- We construct energy-efficient homes to reduce tenants’ utility bills dramatically.
