Overview

Mission

The mission is to provide and preserve quality sustainable and affordable housing for underserved populations in South Florida.

What it reported doing in 2025

Homeownership Land Trust and Development- BHP Community Land Trust Inc. advances affordable homeownership through the community land trust model under which the organization retains ownership of land and offers long-term ground leases to income-qualified buyers permanently reducing the cost of homeownership. Development activities include pre-development site acquisition and construction management for new affordable housing units. Active projects during 2025 include 350 Overtown 228-unit mixed-income development in Miami Place Louverture in Little Haiti 13 for-sale townhomes and condo units and the continued rehabilitation of the Sky Dania properties. The organization also completed the acquisition of Casa Pines during 2025.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 61% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of total spending goes to programs and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some related-organization disclosures are missing.
