For Neighbors & Housing Support Orgs

Rebuild YOUR Housing Economy—Where You Live.

OneMillion.Homes is the execution log for a Scale-Built Housing operating system that delivers 500+ home annual batches in underbuilt urban and rural communities. This page is for neighbors, tenant/owner groups, faith & civic orgs, housing counselors, and local nonprofits who want to turn belief into build—and help families move from cost-burden to mortgage-ready ownership.

Who this is for

Neighbors & resident leaders organizing for attainable, owner-occupied housing.
Housing support organizations (counselors, CDFIs, CDCs, legal aid, HUD-approved agencies).
Faith, civic, and neighborhood associations ready to align volunteers, land, or resources.
Community coalitions that want one coordinated path to 500+ homes a year and 5,000 homes in ten years.

What you get

Clear On-Ramps: How to plug your neighborhood into a city’s 5,000-home pipeline.
Homebuyer Readiness: Credit coaching, mortgage packaging, and down-payment/closing-cost bridges (via MovementKC 501c3 and partners).
Workforce & Local Vendor Ladders: Training and onboarding into standardized 500+ home batches.
Neighborhood Playbooks: Transit-corridor infill, anti-displacement guardrails, and community benefits agreements.
Transparent Scorecards: Owners created, jobs, cost/schedule compression, energy performance (see Kansas City example).

How it works (simple)

Organize — Rally your block/association/org; identify sites, partners, and readiness gaps.
Align — We connect you to the city’s purchase order and the readiness stack (MovementKC) that turns intent into throughput.
Build — Together.Homes (co-op) executes 500+ home annual batches, exceeding code and compressing timelines.
Own — Middle-market families move into mortgage-ready, climate-resilient homes; jobs and local spend rise.
Repeat — Scorecards inform the next batch; costs fall and capacity compounds.

How neighbors & support orgs can plug in

Homebuyer Cohorts: Assemble interested families; coordinate coaching and lender days.
Land/Opportunity Lists: Identify viable parcels, faith properties, or underused sites along transit.
Community Agreements: Co-create anti-displacement and affordability frameworks with the city.
Workforce Pipelines: Nominate residents for paid apprenticeships and vendor onboarding.
Neighborhood Activation: Volunteer days, blight removal, and public-realm improvements that boost absorption and retention.

What we report to your community

Units started/completed (by batch and neighborhood)
Ownership outcomes (middle-market buyers; cost-burden relieved)
Workforce placements and local vendors onboarded
Energy and monthly cost savings (1/5 energy-use target)
