Overview
LadderUp Housing is bridging the wealth gap by providing an alternative pathway to homeownership for working families in midsized cities. The company purchases, renovates and constructs homes, rents them to residents while they build mortgage readiness through financial coaching, and ultimately sells the homes to those same residents once they qualify for traditional financing. LadderUp's mission-driven approach combines housing access, financial empowerment and neighborhood revitalization to create sustainable pathways to wealth creation through homeownership.
