At Jubilee, the name is more than just a word – it embodies our core mission and values. We chose "Jubilee" for two key reasons: to celebrate the joy of homeownership and to reflect our commitment to solving long-term inequity in housing.
First and foremost, homeownership is a momentous achievement worth celebrating. The word "Jubilee" often evokes thoughts of parties and commemorations of significant milestones. Buying a home is a huge step in people's lives, and it should be a happy and joyous experience. Jubilee wants to be part of making that dream a reality for more people.
The name "Jubilee" also has deeper roots in history and a vision for a fairer future. It's inspired by the Jubilee year described in historic texts, including the Old Testament. The Jubilee year was a year-long celebration held every 50 years, where bondmen were freed and mortgaged lands were restored to their original owners. This "reset" aimed to address growing inequity between haves and have-nots, promoting social harmony.
Solving for inequity is something everyone can universally support. Jubilee wants to be part of that solution by making homeownership more accessible through fair and flexible leaseholds. By offering solutions like the flexibility to buy out the land at any time, Jubilee aims to empower individuals and families on their path to owning a home.

Is the American dream of owning a home slipping away? With rising home prices, hefty down payment requirements, and fluctuating interest rates, many are finding it increasingly difficult to achieve.
When people hear about leasehold properties, they often ask: Isn’t the land the part that appreciates in value while the building depreciates?
In the United States, home prices are significantly influenced by the value of the land beneath them.
