BANKING ON

the future of our communities

The Houston Land Bank believes in the City of Houston’s Neighborhoods, and their residents and businesses. We are working to maintain and strengthen them as strong, vibrant and equitable places. Our mission is to strategically acquire, dispose, and steward vacant, abandoned, and damaged properties and convey them into productive use and to catalyze transformative community and economic development for the City of Houston.

CREATING

productive properties, meeting community goals

Land Banks support community development by facilitating programs to transform properties that have become community liabilities because their condition reduces the quality of life for neighbors and burden taxpayers to community assets that provide opportunities for affordable homeownership and amenities that support community needs.

INVESTING

in Houston’s people and communities

We work in historically underserved neighborhoods across Houston, focusing on the 10 areas designated as Complete Communities by the City. We’re always looking for new opportunities to help, whether it’s by buying and selling property for community improvement, or by partnering with communities to identify the best ways to support their transformation and strengthening.

The Houston Land Bank is a resource for community stakeholders as we work with communities to identify the best ways to support their goals.
