Welcome home, Ambar! We were excited to meet Ambar, one of Habitat for Humanity Greater Orlando & Osceola County's newest homeowners, and hear about her journey. The #FAIRWINDSFoundation and our dedicated crewmembers are honored to contribute to the realization of homeownership for those in the communities we live and serve. Thank you, WESH 2 CW18, for your inspiring coverage!

For those of us that work in affordable housing, community development, first time homeownership and other noble but difficult pursuits --- to say the least it can be difficult. There are days, weeks, months, where I was busy every minute of the day but like Sisyphus pushing his rock its not clear what I accomplished. Even if the City does not solve all of affordability or re-create the ownership economy and middle-class, the small intermediate victories are meaningful. Each unit of housing, while not enough, is extremely meaningful to those it helps. Our homeownership program has only helped a handful of families but I hope this story helps explain the meaning and importance of this work. https://lnkd.in/d8wRPvkr

🏡✨ Celebrating Homeownership Month! ✨🏡 As we honor the journey to homeownership, it's crucial to recognize the ongoing challenges faced by minority communities. Policy gaps at federal, state, and local levels often hinder affordable housing and access to low-cost financing. 🌍💪 Homeownership Month is a time to celebrate the dream of owning a home while also acknowledging the significant barriers that many individuals and families face. Minority communities often encounter unique housing challenges exacerbated by policy gaps at federal, state, and local levels. These gaps can lead to insufficient funding for affordable housing projects and limited access to low-cost financing options. Addressing these challenges requires a concerted effort to advocate for more effective policies that increase funding and improve financing access. By doing so, we can create a more inclusive housing market that offers equal opportunities for all. Let's come together to support initiatives that promote equity in homeownership and ensure that everyone has the chance to achieve their homeownership dreams. Your support can make a real difference in creating a fair and just housing landscape. #HomeownershipMonth #PolicyChange #InclusiveHousing #SupportCommunities #EqualOpportunity #AffordableHousing #EquityInHousing #CommunitySupport #HousingForAll #Keepingly

Last Monday, officials from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development were in Harrisburg to announce a $10 million national grant aimed at bridging the homeownership gap through housing counseling. We are proud to share that PHFA and their sub-grantees received over $479,000 as part of this incredible homeownership initiative! We are thrilled to share a heartfelt testimonial from Karina Urbina, a 35-year-old single mom who has made her dream of homeownership a reality. Karina received 18 months of dedicated housing counseling services from Media Fellowship House, including one-on-one counseling and homebuyer education. Karina purchased her first home in Folcroft, Delaware County, PA, in February 2024! Karina's journey was made possible with $10,000 in Delaware County Homeownership First Assistance and $4,000 from United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey after completing her housing counseling services with Media Fellowship House.

June is National Homeownership Month in the United States. During this time, we celebrate and commemorate the importance of homeownership across our nation. Here’s why it matters: 1. American Dream: Homeownership remains the heart of the American Dream. It’s the primary way for most people to build personal and generational wealth. 2. Historical Progress: Reflecting on gains, we appreciate that homeownership was historically out of reach for many. In 1900, the national homeownership rate was 46.5%, but by 2000, it increased to 66.2%. 3. Awareness and Gratitude: National Homeownership Month encourages us to express gratitude for increased access to homeownership. It’s a time to consider those still striving for this dream. Let’s celebrate the joys of being homeowners and work toward making this dream attainable for all! 🏠🌟 Francine Caliendo - Your Realtor for Life!

It's #HomeownershipMonth! In June, we're celebrating the power of homeownership! As Aisha Ibrahim, homeownership manager, says: "Homeownership is more than just having a place to live; it supports family stability, community engagement, financial growth, and generational wealth-building. Unlike renting, where leases can be short-term and subject to change, homeownership allows families to settle in one place for the long term, offering a sense of permanence and security. More importantly, families have a place to celebrate milestones and make lasting memories for years to come with loved ones." Thinking about buying a home but don't know where to start? We can help! Our free, HUD-certified Homebuyer Education class can teach of the basics of the homebuying process: https://bit.ly/3RyZUQm
