The rising cost of home has pushed the American dream of homeownership out of reach for far too many Jacksonville residents.
- Home values, rents, and interest rates have skyrocketed.
- The local housing supply is not meeting increased demand.
- This leaves many families locked out of the wealth-generating and equalizing power of affordable homeownership.
It is time for action.
Jacksonville needs more quality, affordable homes. As the largest nonprofit homebuilder in the region, HabiJax has the scale, expertise, and positive public regard to respond quickly to this urgent need.
“Football is two things. It’s blocking and tackling.
I don’t care about formations or new offenses or tricks on defense. You block and tackle better than the team you’re playing, you win.”
