Habitat | 10,771 followers on LinkedIn. We develop. We manage. Above all, we listen.   | We’re a full-service real estate company, with an emphasis on service. We believe that our relationships with our partners, residents, and fellow team members should stand as strong as the buildings we develop and manage, which is why Habitat was recognized as the 2020 Property Management Company of the Year by IREM. 

We work across a wide variety of property types – from affordable housing communities to condominiums to luxury high-rise towers – but, no matter the project, our people-first approach remains the same.

We're thrilled to announce two major milestones at OC Living, part of the transformative $200 million #OgdenCommons project in North Lawndale! On September 19, alongside Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and an incredible team of partners, we cut the ribbon on the first OC Living residential phase - a huge step forward in bringing much-needed #affordablehousing to Chicago's West Side. With 92 units, 90% of which are affordable, this building is already helping make the community more vibrant and accessible. But the excitement didn’t stop there. We also broke ground on #OCLiving Phase 2, which will deliver 75 more units - 82% of them affordable. This phase is just the next step in #Habitat 's commitment to reinvesting in #NorthLawndale and creating housing that supports safety, equity, and opportunity for all. We’re proud to be part of this incredible transformation and can’t wait to see what’s next! Visit www.oclivingchicago.com to learn more about North Lawndale's newest development!

On September 5th, we gathered at The Ivy Room for Habitat's #AnnualCelebration ! This incredible event was spent recognizing the year's successes, honoring #teammembers celebrating 5+ years with Habitat, and debuting our annual themed video showcasing team members celebrating 25+ years (you can watch that here: https://lnkd.in/gVH6m9En ) With team members spread across 70 properties, three business lines, and three states, it's not often we get to be together in such a big group—so when we do, it's always a special time! We enjoyed incredible food, great company, and the chance to reconnect with team members from near and far. Watch our highlight video for a glimpse of what it's like to be part of the #Habitat team. We’re already looking forward to next year

We received some pretty breathtaking nighttime footage of Kingsbury Plaza courtesy of Alex Brown, and we would be remiss not to share this all over the internet!

Come visit us at Kingsbury Plaza and experience true luxury. https://lnkd.in/gyrTtWFN Find Alex and more of his work on Instagram at @aerialbyalex or by clicking https://lnkd.in/gty6M8_3 📽✨

Every year we get together to celebrate our Habitat team members, and every year we unveil a video highlighting team members celebrating their 25, 30, and 35+ year anniversaries with us. Working with Flow Motion Media, Inc 's Josh Stone & Rachel Ehrenberg is always a wonderful experience, but they have truly outdone themselves with this year's video. We may be a little biased, but we think this is far & away the best video we've ever done! We introduce you to Habitat's 11 (imitated, of course, after Ocean's 11!) as they band together for one final job.

Lavell Watson: 30 E Huron 2. Jose Loza: Long Grove House 3. Anna Lu : Chicago Regional Office 4. Sandra Irwin : Chicago Regional Office 5. Vasco Grigorov: Columbus Plaza Celebrating 30 Years: 6.

In a recent feature by the Chicago Sun-Times , Charlton P. Hamer , Senior Vice President of the #HabitatAffordableGroup , highlighted the pressing issues facing Chicago's #housingmarket . Hamer discussed the challenges of developing affordable housing, noting that building costs for affordable units can be just as high, if not higher, than market-rate properties. “I like that housing is at the forefront. There’s an acknowledgment of this #housingcrisis — that’s what it is,” said Hamer. He further explained, “There’s some things that we can do right now — without spending — from a policy standpoint, or a reduction in requirements and scrutiny, that can make things more efficient [and] produce more housing.” Hamer emphasized the importance of policy adjustments that could streamline construction processes and enhance efficiency without additional spending. His insights shed light on the need for innovative solutions and comprehensive strategies to address Chicago's housing shortage and improve #accesstoaffordablehousing for all residents.

We're thrilled to announce a major milestone in the redevelopment of #LeClaireCourts on Chicago's Southwest Side! #Habitat , in partnership with Cabrera Capital Partners , has secured a $27 million capital loan from the Chicago Housing Authority to kick off the first phase of this transformative project. Scheduled to break ground in spring 2025, this initial phase will bring 183 #mixedincome apartments to the area, with 90% designated as affordable. The development will also include a 14,000-square-foot early childhood center, retail space, and a host of resident amenities. Fitness centers and community rooms will be part of the resident amenities, as well as a rooftop apiary to enhance urban biodiversity, foster environmental sustainability, provide fresh honey for residents, and offer educational opportunities for families! We're reimagining LeClaire Courts as a vibrant community hub that will offer not just housing but also essential services, retail, and recreational spaces, all designed to foster a thriving, inclusive neighborhood.
