This important new brief from AFN explores opportunities for leaders in philanthropy, financial services, housing, policy, and other sectors to engage with small, independent landlords to enhance the impact of their strategies to support asset building, housing affordability, small businesses, and racial economic justice.
Asset Funders Network’s new primer focuses on Heirs’ property, property that has passed down to multiple family members via inheritance, often across multiple generations. This primer reviews the major issues associated with heirs’ property and the disproportionate impacts it has on Black families and other communities of color, exacerbating the racial wealth gap.
