🎉 Today marked a significant milestone for Arkansas Enterprises for the Developmentally Disabled, Inc. (AEDD).

✂️🎀 We cut a ribbon at their non-congregate shelter housing location in Cabot, AR.

🙌 This was the first of three locations that ADFA helped with grant funding totaling over $4.6 million to make this vision possible. We are excited to see this project come to light!

🎊 We are so proud of this accomplishment & what it means for AEDD & their clients. We can’t wait to celebrate the locations in Lonoke & Argenta with you!

🤓 Did you know?! 🏡 🔑

🤯 There are 30 Targeted Counties in Arkansas that qualify for ADFA’s StartSmart Program!

▶️ This means that 30 counties out of 75 total counties in Arkansas are considered Low to Moderate Income Counties. That is 40%! 👀

🙌 Of course we can still lend in all 75 counties, but you can qualify for our StartSmart program in 30 of these counties WITHOUT having to be a first-time homebuyer!

🇺🇸 Another way to qualify for StartSmart without being a first-time homebuyer is by being a Veteran or spouse of a Veteran.

⚾️ Take Me Out to the Ball Game!

The Mortgage Bankers Association of Arkansas, along with our industry partners, gathered together to cheer on the Arkansas Travelers, network, and have the best social outing.

And the weather was perfect last night at Dickey-Stephens Park with temps ranging from low to mid 70s with a great overcast & gentle breeze.

You just can’t beat a night of baseball, fellowship, networking, ballpark food, laughter, and fun!

Play Ball!
