Our Impact
Enhancing Communities Through
Affordable Housing
Fitch Irick works to provide residents with safe and affordable homes which provides numerous benefits to the community
Financial Independence
Many families and seniors are spending over 50% of their income on housing leaving little money for basic necessities like food and medicine. Affordable housing effectively reduces rent allowing residents the ability to better afford the standard cost of living.
Economic Development
Affordable housing is a tool for furthering economic development in the community. Self-sustaining cities need wages earned at both ends of the spectrum. If an area is only comprised of high-wage earners, then transportation costs will skyrocket, infrastructure will be stressed, and commute times will increase for all. Because we are able to bring down housing costs below market rates, more money becomes available for purchasing goods and services in the local economy.
Housing Choice
Many well-paying and stable jobs are located in communities with higher housing costs, making the ability to find decent housing unattainable for our residents. By developing and preserving affordable housing in these communities, we not only provide additional housing choices to our residents but also further the community’s sustainability by allowing all people the opportunity to live where they work.
