ABOUT USReview a few common questions
What are the economic advantages of an Upward Community?
For employers, an Upward Community can help you attract – and retain – top talent. Employees benefit from reasonable rents, enticing commutes, and a place to put down roots, while enjoying beautiful homes and engaging amenities. And, of course, your city and region can benefit from the anticipated influx of critical workers.
Why is Upward the right solution at the right time?
We address one of today’s most pressing problems: Finding high-quality, affordable, conveniently located, and safe housing while the cost of living accelerates. Unfortunately, wages aren’t keeping pace with these essentials, and too many talented workers are strained to make ends meet. Upward bridges this gap.
How are you different from other single-family home developers?
Inspired by critical workers and their integral role in each community, we sought out a way to serve them – and create a win-win for employers and employees alike. In this way, our mission-driven team recognizes the invaluable work of teachers, nurses, firefighters, and all public-sector employees.
What size homes do you build?
Whatever your community needs, we can engineer it. As home developers with extensive experience, the sky’s the limit. Every project prioritizes layouts that provide yards, privacy, and real room to relax. Our homes are always built to local regulations and tailor-made to your particular needs. Most Upward Communities range from two- to four-bedroom layouts, with garage and front porch options for every rental home.
Are the homes rentals or for purchase?
The way we set up our properties is customizable to your specific needs. We anticipate that most communities desire rental homes, though we can provide rent-to-own and buying options – and pave the way to the wise investment of home ownership. During our discovery process, we’ll discuss these choices with you in depth.
