Our Mission
We are dedicated to creating and sustaining healthy, mixed-income communities through affordable home ownership, rental homes and repair services in Columbus’ South Side and Linden communities.
Our Vision
We believe all families deserve a safe and affordable place to live, so they can focus on the things that matter most – like a child’s education, a parent’s job and their overall health and well-being. Our goal is to provide high-quality homes for ownership or rent by constructing new houses and rehabilitating vacant, distressed properties.
