Creek Valley Properties breaks ground on the Pontiac Development Project, bringing five planned CrossMod homes on Walnut Street one step closer to reality. The project reflects collaboration among the developer, Oakland Together Housing Trust Fund, City of Pontiac, Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA), Oakland Thrive and other partners whose investment will support the creation of five single-family homes in Pontiac.
CrossMod is a category of manufactured home built primarily in a factory and installed on a permanent foundation. It combines factory-building efficiencies with design features associated with site-built houses, such as pitched roofs, porches, and garages. Factory-built housing gives Creek Valley Properties an opportunity to introduce quality, attractive, energy-efficient homes while exploring ways to reduce construction costs and make homeownership accessible to more working families.
“By integrating five CrossMod homes into an established urban neighborhood, Creek Valley is showing how this approach can create new pathways to homeownership,” says Justin Ibe, managing partner of Creek Valley Properties LLC. “A stronger community isn't measured only by the number of new homes we build. It's measured by how many people can build a better life in them. That's the kind of impact we want to have, beginning right here in Pontiac and eventually throughout Michigan.”
Creek Valley Properties’ Pontiac Development Project is another example of ongoing, coordinated, community investment into affordable housing developments in Oakland County. Project plans reserve one home for a household earning approximately 60% of area median income, extending the development’s homeownership opportunity to a lower-income buyer. The other four homes will be sold to households earning between 80% and 120% of area median income.
“Oakland County is committed to investing in projects that not only increase the possibility of home ownership, but that do so in a creative, innovative way,” said Oakland County Deputy County Executive Madiha Tariq. “Our Oakland Together Housing Trust Fund invested $200,000 towards this development project to help create opportunities for families to put down roots, build traditions, and create opportunities for future generations.”
The five lots were previously owned and sold to Creek Valley Properties by the City of Pontiac, who also offers qualifying first-time homebuyers up to $20,000 toward down payment and eligible closing costs. Assistance is subject to program requirements, buyer approval, and funding availability.
"Pontiac's positive growth and forward momentum are propelled further when we expand quality housing opportunities in our city,” said Mayor Mike McGuinness, City of Pontiac. “We're excited to see this groundbreaking on Walnut Street. Congratulations to Creek Valley Properties on your hard work and we are rooting for your continued success every step of the way! Let's go, Pontiac!"
