Thrilled to celebrate with Birmingham Mayor Randall Woodfin, local leaders and our partners, Soho Housing Partners, Synovus, BWE, and the Housing Authority of the Birmingham District as we kickoff the renovation of Cooper Green affordable apartments in southwest Birmingham yesterday. The 1971-built property with 227 units will get significant upgrades, including new energy-efficient appliances and new playgrounds for kids.

We would like to thank Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens for helping us celebrate the groundbreaking of Metropolitan Place yesterday, which will bring 176 affordable apartment homes just south of downtown. We're thrilled to see this project come to fruition in our hometown and want to thank all our partners for their tireless support in making this happen... Invest Atlanta, Georgia Department of Community Affairs, Berkadia, U.S. Bank, Chase Bank, and Soho Housing Partners, amidst an army of construction experts, engineers, architects, and designers. #affordablehousing

Such a fantastic day at Panama City Beach as we celebrated the grand opening of Tupelo Park. Thank you to Mayor Stuart Tettemer and to our partners Hunt Capital Partners and Aetna, a CVS Health Company for speaking and to all the new residents who shared their stories today.

Today we celebrated the Grand Opening of The Legacy at Carr Heights in Charlotte, NC. Addressing the need for affordable housing is the most cost-effective way to lift residents out of poverty and attract businesses and jobs to a given community. We strive to bring well-constructed, well-managed, beautiful properties that raise the property values on which they are built as well as enhance their neighborhoods. The Legacy at Carr Heights, like most of our affordable housing opportunities, was a massive undertaking, developed on more than four acres of land with $31 million in funds. These are the most gratifying of days as we take a small step towards addressing the country’s shortage of affordable housing. We would like to thank everyone that helped it come to fruition: Fifth Third Bank, Raymond James, Barings, LISC Charlotte, Charlotte Housing Opportunity Investment Fund, City of Charlotte, NCHFA, INLIVIAN, the West Boulevard Neighborhood Coalition, West Side Community Land Trust (West Side CLT) as well as Give Impact. https://lnkd.in/eYU2sZif
