Since launching in May 2022, Landed—a voluntary benefit to help faculty and staff members purchase a home—continues to gain interest among the University community. Landed provides up to $120,000 toward a down payment through their shared equity down-payment program and connects eligible employees to homebuying resources. Participants do not need to be first-time homebuyers, and there are no income or asset limits needed to qualify.
Faculty and staff members interested in learning more about Landed can connect with their homebuying team here.
In addition to Landed, faculty and staff members can explore additional housing resources, including the Housing Affordability Tracker—an innovative tool created through a partnership with the Office of Civic and Community Engagement and Miami-Dade County—and the Miami-Dade Home Ownership Assistance Program.
The purchase of a home is an important and consequential decision. We urge you to conduct your own research before purchasing and/or financing a home and/or considering the financing options offered by Landed. The University of Miami is informing its employees of the availability of this possible financing option; because home purchases and financing requirements are unique, the University of Miami expresses no opinion as to whether the Landed financing option is appropriate or best suited for any particular individual.
