Permanent Affordability. Supportive Guidance. Community-Focused.

Community Home Trust opens the door to affordable homeownership through a unique, shared-equity approach grounded in stability and community.

Why Choose Our Program?

  • Deeply Affordable Homes
    Our homes are typically priced 30–50% below market value, making homeownership a realistic dream for local families and professionals.

  • Permanent Affordability with Equity
    Homes remain affordable for future generations through our 99-year ground lease model, while homeowners build equity through limited appreciation.

  • Community and Sustainability Driven
    As a community land trust, we help preserve neighborhoods, champion inclusivity, and support long-term wealth-building for area residents.
