What We Do: Overview

Merced owns or has developed 1,909 units of quality, affordable multifamily housing in San Antonio, Somerset, Conroe, Corpus Christi and Goliad, TX.

Through our multifamily, single-family and Owner Occupied Emergency Repairs Programs, Merced serves more than 1,990 households. When developments currently in the pipeline are complete, Merced will serve more than 2,100 households in Bexar, Montgomery, Nueces, and Goliad counties in Texas. At Merced, we believe in providing more than simple shelter. In keeping with our mission, we provide services at our multifamily properties that support residents’ efforts to raise healthy families and become self-sufficient, fully participating members of society.

Merced’s Single-Family Program revitalizes inner-city neighborhoods and provides homeownership opportunities for low-income families. Merced acquires dilapidated eyesores and completely rehabilitates them or constructs new infill homes and sells them to qualifying low-income families.

Serve Our Seniors Project - Addition of Stairs Through the Serve Our Seniors (SOS) Emergency Repair Program, Merced helps extremely low-income senior and disabled homeowners who cannot afford to keep their homes safe, sanitary, or structurally sound. Merced makes emergency health and safety related repairs at no cost to the homeowners. The SOS Program enables very low-income senior and disabled persons to stay in the homes they own and love. We also have found that receiving SOS assistance often restores faith and hope to seniors whose existence has become bleak because of their limited means.
