Our Program Mission

We at True Homes have recognized the pressing need for affordable housing in the communities we serve in the Carolinas and are determined to be part of the solution. As one of the largest private semi-custom home builders in the region, we understand the impact that affordable housing can have on individuals, families, and entire communities.

Everyone deserves an opportunity to own a safe and comfortable place to call home, regardless of their initial economic situation. By committing True Homes internal resources, we are demonstrating our desire to make a meaningful difference in our communities.

The Doorway to Prosperity Program

Through our Doorway to Prosperity program, we offer affordable home opportunities to households with an area median income of less than 110% with a priority focus on those at 80% and below. This program utilizes down payment assistance offered through community and lending partnerships combined with True Homes commitment to build at price points that rarely exist. This initiative allows more families to cross the threshold of homeownership and build generational wealth.

Since 2022, True Homes has provided 46 Doorway to Prosperity homes and over 100 more are currently under development for 2024.

Our Commitment and Vision

We understand that housing affordability is not just about providing homes at lower price points.

We are committed to ensuring that these homes are of high quality, practical, aesthetically pleasing, and meet the diverse needs of the community.
We are committed to helping potential clients overcome hurdles that may initially disqualify them from home ownership through our internal programing, strong community partnerships, and vast expertise of our associates.

We are committed to our vision: “To provide people the opportunity for more life.” This vision goes beyond just constructing houses; it’s about creating homes where people can build their lives, create memories, and find their own definitions of ‘more life.’
