How we're moving Latino homeownership forward

Policy and advocacy

Working with policymakers, we identify and advance solutions that support homeownership opportunities for first-time and first-generation homeowners, including Latino families. Our HOME policy agenda focuses on expanding access to credit, boosting the supply of homes affordable to first-time homebuyers and protecting homeownership equity and legacy. 

Communications strategy

Sharing the Latino homeownership story inspires consumer awareness and behavior and increases allies in the industry, government and the general public. Elevating the significant economic impact of Latino homeownership is key to transformational change. 

Community investments

HOME invests in local organizations innovating solutions to boost Latino homeownership. To date, UnidosUS has awarded over $2 million to community-based organizations that are tackling America’s housing supply crisis and supporting moderate-income families on the path to homeownership.  

Research and data

To glean a deeper understanding of the key barriers and opportunities related to Latino home ownership, HOME invests in research and engages with some of the leading think tanks in the country  to conduct research to inform better public policies and market practices. 

We are well-positioned to lead this effort
