First-Time Homeowner Alert!

ETHDC is thrilled to congratulate Timica on the purchase of her very first home! Timica's closing was more than just signing paperwork - it was the beginning of stability, opportunity, and a place to call her own.

This project was made possible through our valued partnerships with the Tennessee Housing Development Agency, Knoxville's Community Development Corporation, and Pinnacle Financial Partners.

Please join us in welcoming Timica to her new home!

From conference rooms to the Capitol.

ETHDC staff spent the last two days at the Tennessee Housing Conference and today met with several state legislators to advocate for the resources and policies needed to create more attainable housing.

We’re not just building homes — we’re building opportunity.

New year. New look. Same mission.

As we begin the year ahead, we’re excited to unveil our new logo — a fresh expression of our ongoing commitment to the development of affordable housing and first-time homeownership opportunities in Knoxville.

We look forward to continuing this work alongside the families and partners who make it possible.

Happy New Year, Knoxville. Here’s to building what comes next!
