We also revitalize dilapidated properties by transforming them into functioning tools that help progress Nashville and its residents.

We envision a city that is vibrant, thriving, and affordable to all if its residents and is inclusive of all--particularly those who have been traditionally marginalized. 

Values:

Urban Housing Solutions is an organization built on a spirit of innovation, coupled with an unwavering dedication to its mission. Therefore, we value creative solutions that fuel progress, and we use these tools to help others. We value those we serve. This is why we believe in hope, opportunity, and second chances when others have turned a blind eye. We also value perseverance and good stewardship of resources, both  of which enable us to continue to develop more desirable neighborhoods. Most importantly, we value community and the changes that can be accomplished by working together toward a common goal.
