There are many stakeholders to the future of housing.
The bulk of long term care will occur in single family, owner occupied homes…but the homes are unprepared.*
That means almost everyone has a story to tell about finding a place for themselves, a parent, or other loved ones. All have an interest in seeing housing and care improve. Collaboration across stakeholders makes HomesRenewed special. Whether you are young or old, a consumer, technology or building product manufacturer, installer, home or community service provider, long term care or healthcare provider or payer, or work in government, there are good reasons to support home updates. HomesRenewed bridges these silos to create new partnerships and networks and build results.
