Who we are

Mission Statement:
Opportunity Housing is committed to improving our community by providing well-maintained rental properties to qualified individuals and families while empowering them to improve their circumstances.
Core Values:
1. Honesty and Respect – We will treat our tenants with honesty and respect at all times.
2. Stewardship – We will act as good stewards of our properties by maintaining them in such condition as would be expected of our own homes.
3. Integrity – We will demonstrate integrity in all facets of our business operations including time, finances, and physical resources.
4. Community – We will enhance our community through cooperative efforts with other charitable organizations, and rehabilitating dilapidated properties.
Where we have been
Opportunity Housing was founded in 1989 in response to a study conducted by a community focus group called “Greencastle 2001” that exposed a significant need for affordable housing in the Greencastle area.
Under the leadership of the original Board of Directors and with the support and donations of the local community, Opportunity Housing was able to develop its first ten rental properties. By 1993 our rental portfolio had grown to 50 units. Opportunity Housing currently maintains 81 affordable housing units.
Where we are going
In order to accommodate our vision to assist financially challenged individuals and families as they seek to become fiscally stable, Opportunity Housing is exploring the possibility of expanding our rental portfolio. In addition, we are currently developing plans to become more active in
our local community, as well as evaluating new services that may be beneficial for our tenants.
