Marshall Heights Community Development Organization will promote the benefits of homeownership and commit to creating opportunities for future homeowners through our innovative Workshops in Partnership with DHCD Department of Housing and Community Development.

We strive to ensure all D.C. residents have the opportunity to achieve homeownership, the centerpiece of the American Dream and the pathway to economic well-being and intergenerational wealth-building.

• Homeownership builds financial security. With 65.5% of Americans owning homes, the net worth of a typical homeowner is nearly 40 times the net worth of a non-owner.

• The total value of owner-occupied housing rose by $8.2 trillion in the last decade, and the number of middle-income homeowners increased by nearly one million. The typical homeowner has accumulated more than $200,000 in housing wealth due to price appreciation.

Enabling more households to achieve sustainable homeownership earlier in life, and maintain that ownership throughout life, is crucial to narrowing the racial homeownership and housing wealth gaps.

Attendees will have the opportunity to speak with:

• Real Estate Agents
• Lenders
• Appraisers
• Title & Escrow Agents
• Certified Home Inspectors
• and more!

Note:

HPAP 2HR & 8HR Certificate of Completion will be issued in-person after each session.
