Parity innovatively breathes new life into blocks of long-abandoned rowhomes in West Baltimore. By leveraging social capital, we create upfront demand for affordable homeownership opportunities through community-based purchasing models. Our work is centered on development without displacement-ensuring historically marginalized residents can benefit from and help direct reinvestment in their neighborhoods.
We're a small but growing team that values collaboration, warmth, and craftsmanship. Every team member is empowered to shape systems, solve problems, and contribute meaningfully to equitable development.
