4 Feel Good Initiatives From the Housing Industry

John Burns Real Estate Consulting gathered four positive initiatives from the housing industry, highlighting companies that have stepped up in this time of need. A group of 20 home builders, #BuildersCare, donated more than 200,000 pieces of PPE to first responders in April. Bath and kitchen manufacturer Kohler has used its resources to create face shields, about 9,000 a day to be exact. In the near future, Kohler anticipates producing even more on a daily basis. Home builder Taylor Morrison put together a wedding ceremony for a first-responder fiancee on the lot of the couple’s soon to be built new home, and PulteGroup delivered its 57th mortgage-free home to a deserving veteran.
