Our Castle Homes has a meaningful mission. It is our goal to pool our resources and experience to turn our vision into a reality of providing affordable homeownership to working families who otherwise lack the opportunity to become homeowners.

We are entrepreneurs who want to build a business, not only to generate fair returns on investments, but to create and provide a product that is fundamental to the "American Dream," serving a customer base that is often overlooked the sub-median income working family.

Homeownership is a time proven means to build equity that hedges against inflation, builds wealth, and defines one's permanence in the community. Pride of homeownership often promotes stable neighborhoods and communities, where families co-exist and support each other. But many times homeownership eludes families who are sub-median income earners, affording them little option except to rent, often requiring federal, state, and local programs to mitigate the pressures of escalating real estate rental markets.

 

We, the principal stakeholders of Our Castle Homes, want to offer a viable solution and a business opportunity that will refine the term "affordable housing" in a free enterprise environment. Our plan is to acquire expiring tax credit rental apartments that have served well in providing affordable rental housing, but are threatened with being taken out of the affordable housing stock, and converting them to condominium units. We intend to offer these newly converted and upgraded units to existing tenants and/or other qualifying sub-median income families so that they, too, are afforded the opportunity of homeownership. In most cases, we believe they will be first time homebuyers.
