Podcast length: 14 min., 54 sec.Owning a home is the American Dream, and no one brings that dream to life better than Habitat for Humanity of the Chesapeake. For more than 25 years, Habitat has worked with its partner families to build hundreds of affordable homes in and around Baltimore. Demanding nothing more than the sweat-equity of its partner families and the repayment of a 0% interest, no-profit mortgage, Habitat is leading the effort to alleviate the lack of affordable housing in our city.
Spearheading that effort is Habitat’s CEO Mike Mitchell. Mike stopped-in to talk with the Rapport about a variety of topics, including his thoughts Baltimore’s affordable housing dearth and the need for increased code enforcement to prevent neighborhood blight. Mike also gave us the scoop on Habitat’s latest endeavor: the recent construction of nine environmentally-friendly, modular homes in East Baltimore.
This podcast is a must listen for anyone interested in the future of affordable housing in Baltimore.
