We’d like you to consider loaning us money. Please read on to learn more.

It may be more common to donate financially to nonprofits, but this results in more donors needed and longer periods of time gathering funds in order to build affordable housing.

Don’t get us wrong- if you’d only like to donate then we’re happy to have you on board and grateful you’d do so.

However- we’d like you to consider creating a loan with us. Affordable housing costs a lot (it is housing after all). We’ve found that when people know they’ll get their money back with some added interest, they are willing to pledge more money to the cause. This helps create more housing and create it sooner than other methods.

We look at it like investing. Many people invest purely for a financial motive. However, they never really get to “see” what they’re investing in. We care about honesty- you likely won’t get the return with us that you’d get with a big tech company or other business. However, you will get to see what you’re investing in if you live near Indy. You can drive by the homes/apartments. We’d invite you to an open house to tour and see what’s been done with your money. Maybe even dedicate a building to you. Theirs is purely money. Ours? Money and societal good. Talk about a win win.

Together, we’d get to change Indy. Change and help our community. Our neighborhood. For the better. For the future.

So how would creating a loan with us work? See the tabs to the right.

  • Below this section of the website is an online form. You’d fill it out with your information. A portion mentions the pledge- this is the amount you’d like to loan us. We ask that you hold onto this amount (or let it grow! Just don’t let it shrink) and we will contact you when the next financial opportunity arises.

  • Term: At minimum, we’d need a 5 year term. This allows us plenty of time to go through the planning process, build, house people and see return before needing to pay you back. However, we’d be happy to do longer terms if you’d be fine with that.

    Rate: We try to offer at a minimum about 3% growth annually so stay up with inflation. We don’t want you to lose anything by loaning us what is valuable to you and this lets us do that. However, our goal is closer to 5% growth annually.

    Specifics will be discussed once we contact you further after filling out the loan form.

  • Example Conditions: 5 year term at 5% with a loan of $10,000.

    You could choose to receive your funds monthly (using a standard mortgage formula) over the course of 5 years. That means we’d pay you $188.71/month.

    OR

    You could allow us to pay you back in one large lump sum anytime over the course of that term. If, for example, the loan was formed on July 9th of 2025, then we could pay you back once on any of the following dates the funds listed:

    Payment due July 9th, 2026: $10,500.00

    Payment due July 9th, 2027: $11,025.00

    Payment due July 9th, 2028: $11,576.25

    Payment due July 9th, 2029: $12,155.06

    Payment due July 9th, 2030: $12,762.82
