Community Housing Innovations Homeownership Expo

Dear Partners & Friends,

CHI’s Homeownership Team cordially invites you to participate in our 2024 Homeownership Expo! The Expo will take place on Saturday June 29^th, 2024, at Hotel Noma (Formerly Radisson Hotel) from 11:00am – 3:00pm. June is National Homeownership Month and we recognize the power of owning a home when raising a family, planting roots in a community, building equity and passing down generational wealth to continue the American Dream for generations to come.

CHI’s Homeownership Expo will empower individuals and families alike to take the next step in their homeownership journey as well as equip them with the tools needed to be successful along the way. Our Expo is geared to all; those who are looking to buy a home, those who already own a home or those who are looking to maintain or retain their current home. Attendees will have the opportunity to interact directly with vendors and attend a Grant & Fair Housing Presentation.

The event will be free to all attendees with registration available on CHI’s Website & Eventbrite. We are excited to host our Annual Homeownership Expo and would love to have you join us! Print registration form here.
