Downpayments for nonprofits to make homeownership a reality
Foundations empowers organizations to purchase homes in high-cost cities, enabling their employees to lay strong foundations within the communities they serve.
Enriching Lives Through
Attainable Housing
We believe that when an organization can own a house in the city they serve, their employees feel more at home, stay and serve longer in that community, and are able to expand their reach and impact to those who need it most.
A new real estate model that enables nonprofits to own valuable housing and use it to support their employees.
Foundations' approach provides institutions with a way to own valuable real estate through a unique and advantageous economic model.
Purchase & Split Lots
Foundations purchases a home on behalf of a nonprofit with a large downpayment utilizing mechanisms like SB 9 or AB 1033.
