Homz builds sustainable, wellness-focused multifamily and mixed-use master-planned communities that standardize design, layout and amenities across properties. Each community will offer 54 publicly available amenities (clubhouses, pools, athletic fields, playgrounds, urban farms, Miyawaki forests) and four multifamily brands—UP, 24, NJOY and LYF—plus build-to-rent single-family homes to serve renters at different life stages. The company targets tier-2 markets roughly 20–30 minutes from high-growth metropolitan areas and plans to develop a portfolio of 50 communities concentrated in the U.S. Southeast. Homz expects to invest about $140–170 million per community, will seek financing from the Department of Housing and Urban Development, and intends to hold each investment for roughly 25 years. The company raised $50 million in a pre-seed round led by Nanban Ventures, with additional participation from family offices and high- and ultra-high-net-worth individuals. Founders and management bring decades of hospitality experience and have developed, owned and managed over $5 billion of assets; Homz is designing communities to meet UN PRI and ESG criteria.
