As more Hoosiers struggle to find affordable housing, First
Internet Bank and Greater Indy Habitat for Humanity announced an
exclusive $16 million home loan purchase agreement to help the
dream of homeownership become a reality. First Internet Bank and
Greater Indy Habitat for Humanity commemorated the partnership
today at a home build in metro Indianapolis.
In keeping with Habitat’s vision of building and improving homes
to benefit local area individuals and families, the current plan
calls for the completion of 100 homes in Marion, Hancock, Hendricks
and Hamilton counties. The partnership begins in 2023 and will run
through 2025. First Internet Bank will provide warehouse funding
for the home loans.
“The heartbeat of our mission is ‘bringing people together’ to
build homes, communities and hope,” said Jim Morris, President and
CEO of Greater Indy Habitat for Humanity. “First Internet Bank has
responded to this call by participating at an unprecedented level.
They have been a partner in our mission to provide affordable
homeownership to first-time buyers since 2015.”
“With increasing housing production costs and sales prices, a
large portion of the workforce will not have access to
homeownership,” Morris noted. “First Internet Bank continues to
support our efforts with the largest partnership funding in our 35
years - a three-year, $16 million investment starting in 2023. They
are also participating in a home build for a local family. We are
humbled by the company’s recognition of the need and joining us to
meet the demand.”
“Homeownership is a vital factor for the stability of not only
families but entire communities,” said David Becker, Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer at First Internet Bank. “The scarcity of
affordable housing only makes the issue more acute. By joining
forces with Habitat for Humanity, we can serve our neighbors while
creating a path to long-term financial growth and
independence.”
