The Homeownership Center Joins County Corp!

The HomeOwnership Center and County Corp have big news for you!

County Corp expanded its portfolio of community strengthening services on January 1, 2017 by assuming the role of managing member of The HomeOwnership Center of Greater Dayton. Prior to this date, this role was held by St. Mary Development Corporation.

For over thirty-six years, County Corp has been building stronger communities across the Greater Dayton region with a mix of programs that provide safe, affordable housing and facilitate small business growth. The HomeOwnership Center of Greater Dayton has built a reputation for improving the stability of the region’s housing market by providing homebuyers access to valuable financial education, unique lending programs, down payment assistance, and foreclosure prevention.

As a result of this affiliation, both companies will now share resources and complementary infrastructure. This will reduce redundancies in program offerings from both organizations while retaining all staff. Julie Deacon has been named the Executive Director of The HomeOwnership Center, and will report to Steve Naas, President of County Corp.

“We are thrilled with this new partnership,” said Deacon. “Our team will stay together while benefitting from the additional resources provided by County Corp to provide even more benefits to homeowners and homebuyers. It’s a win-win partnership, not just for our organizations, but for the communities we serve.”

“I’m pleased to welcome The HomeOwnership Center of Greater Dayton to the County Corp family,” said Naas. “It’s a great fit that increases efficiency while also creating some exciting new opportunities for growth. We respect the team over there and the work that they do. It’s deeply satisfying to know that we will be able to help even more people gain sustainable access to safe, affordable housing across the Dayton region.”

Going forward, the organizations plan to offer innovative and creative new residential and small business products and services that will help their clients and the communities they serve succeed. Currently, The HomeOwnership Center staff will continue to be available to local homebuyers and homeowners at the existing 205 East First Street location in Dayton.
