Own the HOU is a groundbreaking initiative dedicated to bridging the homeownership gap for people of color (Members of the Black, Hispanic, Indigenous, and Asian communities) in Houston and Harris County. Our mission is to support 5,000 new households of color in achieving their dream of homeownership while assisting existing homeowners of color in preserving their cherished homes by the end of 2028.Own the HOU is an initiative that brings together key stakeholders and organizations committed to fostering equitable homeownership opportunities in our community.
Fifth Ward Community Redevelopment Corporation leads three programs under the Own the HOU collaboration:
•Earned Equity Builder

Each table will feature an industry professional and a young professional who has been through the homeownership process. Participants will have the opportunity to have authentic conversations about homeownership and ask questions they may have.
