Community Stabilization
HomeSteps' goal is to maintain and sell its properties in a timely manner to preserve local property values and help stabilize communities.
All suppliers selling and maintaining our homes are required to adhere to our HomeSteps Good Neighbor Practices to ensure that within three business days of HomeSteps gaining legal possession of a home:
- The home is secure.
- Trash has been removed from the exterior/interior.
- The lawn is properly maintained and followed up by weekly maintenance.
- Exterior/interior cleaning is initiated.

If you are a nonprofit, local city/county government or other entity engaged in community stabilization activities and are interested in the potential donation of a Freddie Mac REO home, please contact us at [email protected].
