Repairing Communities through the Power of Home and Place
Vibrant communities thrive on accessibility — affordable homeownership, retail spaces, and rental housing. Too often, speculative real estate prioritizes profit over people, undermining community well-being. Our work in Home and Place strengthens local ownership, expands access to affordable rentals, and helps build and preserve resilient, inclusive communities.
Create affordable, livable communities for low-income families
by increasing the supply of affordable housing and developing mixed-use communities.
Build wealth towards real estate ownership
by expanding access to less expensive and extractive financing for home and commercial ownership.
Reclaiming and revitalizing communities
by working with the stewards of locally significant places to bring the past into the living present and build vibrant, resilient communities.

Blackstar Stability’s business model stabilizes families by keeping people in their homes, helping to maintain and strengthen neighborhoods and communities.
