Why Land Matters
Nothing gets built without ground to build on
Land is the biggest barrier between an affordable housing plan and a family holding their keys, and in Central Florida it's the hardest piece to find at a price a nonprofit can carry.
Sanford Courtyard began the same way: a parcel, a review process, and a community that decided working families belonged here.
Pathways
Ways to support the next community

Donate land outright
Transfer a parcel to Home for Good as a charitable gift, after review and approval.
-
Discounted sale
Sell property to Home for Good below market value, also known as a bargain sale.
-
Fund an acquisition
Make a gift toward purchasing a parcel that fits the mission.
-
Make an introduction
Connect us with a landowner, developer, municipality, or institution with suitable property.
Preliminary Criteria
What type of property may be a fit?
These are starting points for a conversation. Every property goes through formal review, and no single criterion guarantees acceptance.
About potential tax considerations
A gift of real property to a qualified 501(c)(3) may have tax implications, depending on your circumstances and how the gift is structured. Central Florida Home for Good does not provide legal, tax, appraisal, or financial advice. Please consult your own attorney, tax professional, and appraiser.
