Director, Real Estate Development

About the Company

The American Housing Corporation is on a mission to solve America’s housing crisis through all-out production, starting with the development of rowhomes. We believe that America’s affordability crisis is fundamentally a production crisis, and that solving it requires a vertically integrated development approach: We buy land, and manufacture, install, and sell our homes directly to customers.
