Springfield organization helps make homeownership possible
DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) — It's National Homeownership Month, and one local organization is helping turn people's dreams into reality. On Monday, the Neighborhood Housing Partnership of Greater Springfield celebrated seven new home builds along Clifton Avenue. The NHP has been in Springfield since 2002, but it's because of assistance from area agencies that the programs they offer continue to thrive. 'We care about people and getting them into home ownership or whatever their goals are,' said Kerri Brammer, NHP Home Ownership Center manager. Lining the block of a neighborhood across the street from John Legend Theatre, dreams are coming true for seven Springfield families. 'It's very exciting. It's taken us a while,' said Brammer. 'It takes a lot of funding, a lot of partnerships to get this far.' None of this work would be possible without the city of Springfield helping set the foundation, alongside a property group building these houses from scratch. 'One of the great things about homeownership is that it helps move people out of the poverty cycle and into building wealth,' said Rachel Goff, NHP executive director. The NHP of Greater Springfield is breaking down barriers one house at a time, paving the way for people considered a part of the low-income population. A realtor and board member with NHP says while the process can be tough, it's worth it — especially if it's your first time buying a home. 'The feeling is very exhilarating only because, you know, sometimes people get defeated, they want to give up, they don't want to keep pushing forward,' said Tyler Hicks, NHP board of directors member. 'But at the same time, there's still that glimmer of hope.' Torrance Johnson is just one example of someone who used the resources offered by NHP to purchase his first home. 'You got that desire to get a house, they could actually get you into a house,' said Torrance Johnson, homeowner through NHP. 'Because they got programs to actually help you out, to actually obtain that home within a beautiful budget.' Johnson says he's grateful to have a brand new house, and hopes to see more neighbors move in soon. 'I hope they appreciate it as much as I appreciate mine,' said Johnson. After starting new builds on Clifton Avenue in 2008, the NHP has grown its portfolio to nearly 20 houses on that block alone. If you're interested in buying, NHP says the best thing to do is get the process started now. To learn more about NHP of Greater Springfield's resources, visit their website.
