Our Mission

At Affordify Housing Fund, we believe in turning the dream of homeownership into reality—one home at a time. Founded by three passionate real estate professionals, Tomond Jack, Michael (MO) Oden, and Akeen Felder, our mission is clear: create stable, affordable housing that benefits both investors and homeowners. Through strategic land development and innovative financing, we are committed to addressing Atlanta’s housing affordability crisis while providing strong returns for our investors.

Asset
Class Focus

At Affordify Housing Fund, we focus on four key asset classes that align with our mission to provide affordable housing solutions while generating strong returns for our investors. Each asset class plays a pivotal role in addressing the growing housing affordability gap in Atlanta, helping both homebuyers and investors achieve long-term success. Here’s how we approach each of these asset classes:

  • Single-Family New Construction Homes

    Our primary focus is building new, single-family homes that cater to first-time homebuyers and families looking to invest in their futures. These homes are designed with affordability in mind, ensuring that they meet the needs of buyers while providing long-term value. By building new homes, we can avoid the costly repairs and maintenance associated with older properties, giving our investors a more predictable return.

    Community Impact: New homes provide stability for families and create opportunities for wealth-building through homeownership.

  • Townhomes

    Townhomes are ideal for first-time buyers, downsizers, and growing families who need more space without the high price tag of a single-family home. They are a popular choice in urban areas where land is limited, and they offer an affordable entry point into homeownership.

    Community Impact: Townhomes help revitalize neighborhoods, offering affordable alternatives in high-demand areas and encouraging community growth.

  • Missing Middle Homes
    (Duplexes, Triplexes, Quadplexes)

    To bridge the gap between single-family homes and larger apartment buildings, we invest in “Missing Middle” housing—duplexes, triplexes, and quadplexes. These multi-family homes provide affordable for-sale housing that meets the needs of middle-income buyers, especially in neighborhoods where single-family homes are out of reach.

    Community Impact: These homes increase housing density, reduce urban sprawl, and provide affordable options for individuals and families looking to build equity.

  • Subdivision Development

    In addition to individual homes, we target larger-scale subdivision developments. This allows us to create entire communities where families can live, work, and grow together. Subdivisions provide investors with the opportunity to generate substantial returns while contributing to the creation of stable, well-planned neighborhoods.

    Community Impact: Subdivisions foster a sense of community, providing affordable housing options while creating jobs and supporting local economies.

Our Investment Selection Process

Affordify’s investment strategy is thoughtful and deliberate, designed to ensure that every project meets both financial and social goals. Here’s how we approach investments:

  • Market Analysis

    We identify high-growth neighborhoods around key amenities like the Beltline, public transportation hubs, and entertainment districts. These areas ensure strong long-term value and stability for investors.

  • Property Selection

    We carefully evaluate land parcels for key criteria such as proximity to neighborhoods with high demand, available density potential, and access to down payment assistance programs. We prioritize parcels that enable quick development to maximize project profitability.

  • Risk Assessment

    We minimize risk by building contingencies into project timelines and costs, ensuring that we can absorb any unexpected delays or cost overruns. We maintain a proactive approach by meeting with contractors weekly to ensure project timelines are met.

  • Community Impact

    Our developments aim to meet local affordability standards and offer opportunities for first-time homebuyers to take advantage of down payment assistance programs. We collaborate with local housing agencies and non-profits to increase access to affordable housing for low-income buyers.

Why Being Licensed Real Estate Brokers Gives Us An Edge

As licensed real estate professionals, we have direct access to both on- and off-market deals, enabling us to find valuable land opportunities before they are publicly listed. This gives us a competitive edge in terms of acquisition speed and pricing, ensuring we get the best possible deals for our investors. Additionally, being licensed allows us to manage the sales process internally, maximizing returns for our investors by controlling costs and optimizing the sales pipeline.

Impact on the
Atlanta Community

By focusing on affordable homeownership, we are making a measurable impact on the Atlanta community. Our homes are priced to meet the affordability criteria set by local down payment assistance programs, ensuring that families with modest incomes can access homeownership. Through our partnerships with local non-profits, we continue to expand our reach and help more individuals and families achieve financial stability through homeownership.

Our Approach

At Affordify, our commitment to financial empowerment goes beyond traditional investment strategies—we believe in education, mentorship, and proactive engagement with the communities we serve. That’s why our leadership team—Michael, Tomond, and Akeen—recently visited Georgia State University to speak with the university’s football team about building wealth and preparing for their financial futures.

These student-athletes are at a unique moment in their lives. With increasing exposure through sponsorships, team stipends, and the potential to go pro, they are starting to experience real income—often for the first time. Our team shared practical insights on how to harness that early income to create long-term security through passive investing.
