We’re working to empower families, stabilize neighborhoods, and build lasting community wealth.

The Detroit Homeownership Center CDC, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, is fighting back against displacement and speculation by giving working families the one thing they’ve been denied for decades: a home they can truly call their own.

We’re looking for properties like:

• Single-family homes
• Duplexes and small multi-units
• Vacant homes with rehab potential
• Rental portfolios from ethical owners
• Tax-reverted or inherited properties

Your property donation will:

• Create primary homeownership for families priced out by investors
• Stabilize neighborhoods through intentional, owner-occupied housing
• Build generational wealth in historically redlined and underserved communities
• Re-purpose vacant lots into community assets
• Provide you with IRS-recognized charitable tax deductions

Who can make an impact:

• Investors tired of maintenance headaches and holding costs
• Property managers with unused or inactive portfolios
• Heirs or landlords ready to do something good
• Developers seeking meaningful community impact plus tax benefits

Why act now?
Investor speculation has locked thousands of Detroiters out of homeownership. Together with local financial institutions, we’re creating mortgage-ready, future homeowners—but we can’t do it without available properties.

Donate today. Build tomorrow.
Your unused property could become a family’s forever home.
