 CHICAGO, IL – Chicago-based The Habitat Company, a leading U.S. multifamily developer and property manager, announced it has acquired and assumed property management of an affordable rental development in Chicago’s Englewood neighborhood and also assumed management of two additional affordable housing communities in the Chicago area.

The three properties, which total 500 residences in Chicago and suburban Chicago Ridge, will increase Habitat’s affordable housing portfolio to more than 10,000 units.

“Ensuring families have access to housing they can afford is as much a part of The Habitat Company’s core business as its legacy,” said Matt Fiascone, president of The Habitat Company. “These three projects are a perfect fit for Habitat’s portfolio, and will further our commitment to preserving quality affordable housing opportunities so people can continue living in these Chicago communities they’ve called home for years.”

“At Habitat, we’re highly vested in our diverse portfolio and the well-being of our residents, so we’re excited to bring the same quality of service to these properties – as we do to our luxury and market-rate communities.”
