We were honored to attend the groundbreaking of a new affordable housing development in Western North Carolina, just a few miles from where our CEO, Andrew Crosson, grew up. Representing Invest Appalachia, Andrew joined community partners to celebrate a project our gap financing helped bring to life.

The need for affordable housing in Western North Carolina has long been evident, and in the wake of Hurricane Helene, communities have come together with even greater urgency and determination to build safe, resilient, and accessible homes for all.
