But we know the path to owning your home is not that simple. He sorted out his credit card debt and at 48 years old, he began the homebuying process. That’s when he came to MAHA. Donald remembered, “The whole team got behind me—Percy, Anthonina, Jen, Jessie,” he said.

If you are buying a home anywhere in Massachusetts today, you have to be resilient. Donald, a MAHA and STASH graduate, knows that better than most. He’s been dreaming of a white house with a white picket fence since he was 5 years old growing up in Roxbury. 🧵

MAHA is proud to work together with the City and @MayorWu to get these necessary funds into the hands of first-time & first-gen homebuyers! Getting to closing day as a first time homebuyer is no easy task… 1/2.
Bringing down the cost of housing in Boston — one of the most expensive markets in the country — and increasing home ownership rates among low-income families has been a key focus of Wu’s administration.

MAHA’s Homebuyers Union took our fight for affordable homeownership to the statehouse this year. We advocated for more resources to be allocated to STASH & other critical homeownership programs. We're ready to keep fighting to make sure homeownership gets more attainable!

We launched this program in 2020 in Boston and we’re happy it is now available to more homebuyers across the state. This initiative is an incredible show of collaboration between the public and private sectors to create more access to affordable homeownership in MA.
