Building Homes, Building Hope
Decent, affordable housing for low to moderate income families in Wilmington, North Carolina.
Our ServicesWelcome to AMEZ Housing CDC
Welcome to AMEZ Housing CDC's website. We are a non profit organization working to provide decent affordable housing for low to moderate income families through innovative programs of housing and human development.
Founded in 1993 by the leadership of four inner-city A.M.E. Zion Church congregations, AMEZ has helped hundreds of families in the Cape Fear region either achieve the American Dream of homeownership or keep the homes they already have. Since our first house was sold in October 1996, more than 28 new or rehabilitated houses have become homes to first time homebuyers, without a single default.
Our programs include pre- and post-homebuyer education, credit repair, budgeting, foreclosure and loss mitigation, and down payment assistance for eligible buyers.
