Last week, members of our lending team had a full circle moment when they got to reconnect with new homeowners, Juan and Christine, who each now own their own homes on Prosperity Way in Housantic, thanks to a partnership with Central Berkshire Habitat for Humanity, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Boston, and the Great Barrington Affordable Housing Trust. This meeting was the culmination of months spent working alongside these homeowners, hearing their stories, and helping make homeownership possible.
Each of the 20 planned homes will also include a piece of Berkshire County history: reclaimed wood from the 2024 Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree, donated by the Albert family of West Stockbridge and crafted into commemorative planks. Itโs a meaningful connection to the community these homes will serve for generations to come.
Congrats to both Juan and Christine, along with their families. We are so excited for you and proud to have been a part of your homeownership milestone!
