Homes for Heroes Rewards Program & Circle of Giving
The Homes for Heroes Circle of Giving is more than just a symbol; it represents the practical steps we take to support our heroes—those who serve our communities—in their journey to finding a new home. What began as a simple initiative to reward heroes has transformed into a comprehensive effort to assist both heroes and the broader community. While the focus is primarily on homes and real estate, the initiative has grown into something much larger.
The heroes we support include:
- Firefighters
- EMS Professionals
- Law Enforcement
- Military – Active, Reserves, and Veterans
- Healthcare Professionals
- Teachers
We help these heroes in five significant ways. Here’s a closer look:
**CONNECT – Connecting Heroes with Committed Specialists**
One of the key ways we assist heroes is by connecting them with local real estate experts and mortgage specialists. These professionals, including Julie Cabler, a dedicated real estate agent in Wimberley, are licensed agents and mortgage lenders committed to serving heroes in their communities.
Navigating the real estate market can be challenging, especially in competitive environments. Our local specialists often share a background as heroes themselves, providing them with a unique understanding of the challenges faced by those in service-oriented professions. They stay informed about housing and lending trends in your area, helping heroes maximize their savings during the home buying, selling, or refinancing process. On average, our heroes can save around $3,000 when they close with local specialists.
Abby Waltz, the National Director for Homes for Heroes, emphasizes, “Facilitating connections between our heroes and our real estate and mortgage specialists is vital for achieving homeownership goals, especially in tough markets. Our specialists excel at representing heroes and understanding their unique needs.”
**SERVE – Heroes Serve Us. We Proudly Serve Them.**
Serving our community of heroes is an honor. In 2022 alone, we:
- Supported heroes in over 3,000 U.S. communities
- Assisted nearly 7,500 heroes with buying and/or selling a home
- Helped heroes save nearly $18 million in Hero Rewards® savings
**REWARD – Saving Heroes Money is Our Way to Say, “Thank You for Your Service.”**
The concept of rewards initiated the Circle of Giving, starting with rewards for heroes when they closed on a house. We soon recognized that rewarding heroes leads to inspiring stories and gratitude. Our average Hero Rewards® savings of $3,000 includes:
- $2,300 in savings from local real estate specialists
- $500 from local mortgage specialists
- $150 from local title company specialists
- $50 from local home inspector specialists
Many heroes use their rewards for essential items for their new homes.
**GRANT – Homes for Heroes Foundation Helps Heroes in Need**
The Homes for Heroes Foundation is funded through the Circle of Giving. When a hero works with Homes for Heroes' local real estate experts, a portion of the earnings is donated to the Foundation, enabling us to support other heroes in need.
**STRENGTHEN – Giving Back to Heroes Builds Community Strength**
The Homes for Heroes Circle of Giving encompasses four primary functions: CONNECT, SERVE, REWARD, and GRANT. By offering exceptional service and financial savings, we empower heroes to achieve homeownership and contribute positively to their communities.
If you’re a firefighter, EMS, law enforcement, active military, veteran, healthcare professional, or teacher ready to buy, sell, or refinance a home, we invite you to work with us.
