Phoenix, AZ July 22, 2021 --(PR.com)-- Yesterday, Trellis, a non-profit organization that helps residents of the greater Phoenix area achieve stable living, marked the opening of a new, modern 20-unit townhome community in central Phoenix built to provide workforce housing.
The townhomes at 1617 W. Colter St., Phoenix, were made possible largely by a $350,000 grant from JPMorgan Chase & Co. and construction financing from Community Housing Capital (CHC) a certified community development financial institution (CDFI) and a community development entity (CDE).
Located close to the light rail and other key community resources, the 20 three-story single-family townhomes were designed to provide homeownership opportunities for middle-income earners.
“Trellis is proud to add ownership opportunities along the light-rail especially during these times where there is a such a shortage of housing in our city,” said, Patricia Garcia Duarte, President & CEO at Trellis.
“There’s a severe shortage of workforce housing in metro Phoenix and many underserved families are being excluded from the opportunity of homeownership,” said Noreen Bishop Hill, head of the J.P. Morgan Private Bank in Arizona who also leads JPMorgan Chase’s local leadership team. We’re proud to help Trellis increase the capacity of its homeownership programs to help families create stability and wealth for themselves.”
Beth Jo Zeitzer, President & Designated Broker, R.O.I. Properties, added that Trellis@Colter is one of the few affordable for-sale properties in the market.
“These townhomes are in an area and of a quality that would be unreachable for most middle-income households. We are proud to join Trellis in offering these homes and fulfilling the dream of home-ownership to our buyers, while strengthening the communities in which they are built.”
