Building Housing Solutions for the People Who Power DeKalb County

In partnership with Club 720, DeKalb County is taking a proactive approach to housing, focused on the people who make this community work every day.

Building real housing solutions starts with understanding local needs. That means listening to residents, working closely with employers and housing partners, and providing clear tools that help people move from interest to action. This effort is about strengthening the local housing system and supporting the people who want to live, work, and build their future here.

DeKalb County is bringing together local housing partners to help ensure residents don’t miss opportunities to buy due to barriers like access, information, or timing. Too often, people want to buy a home but aren’t sure where to start or how to prepare.

Club 720 supports this effort by helping residents engage early, understand their options, and prepare before homes come to market. There’s no single “right time” to start. The right time is when you’re ready to learn. This page is your starting point for DeKalb County’s housing initiative and the opportunities available right here at home.

Club 720 for Employers

Support Your Employees’ Housing Goals

Housing stability is workforce stability.

Club 720 helps employers support employees who want to rent, buy, or stay rooted in the community, without becoming housing experts themselves.

We provide a simple, confidential pathway for employees to explore housing options, access down payment assistance, and connect with trusted local partners.


Club 720 for Lenders

Support Buyers Using Local Housing Programs

Club 720 helps lenders participate in local housing initiatives like Hoosier Homes by guiding them through the correspondent lender onboarding process.

We also provide co-branded tools that make it easy to help buyers understand their options, check eligibility, and move forward with confidence.

If you’re interested in offering local programs and aligning with community housing efforts, we’ll help you get connected.


Club 720 for Realtors

Help Buyers Move From Curious to Confident

Your buyers want clarity and fast answers.

Club 720 provides Realtors with co-branded marketing tools that help buyers instantly explore eligibility, understand assistance programs, and connect with trained lenders who can actually deliver.

That means fewer dead ends and more prepared buyers.


Club 720 for Builders

Build for Local Buyers

Club 720 helps builders and developers align new housing with real, local buyer readiness, especially when programs like Hoosier Homes are part of the financing picture.

We provide co-branded materials and buyer education tools that help households understand their options and work with trained lenders, so homes are priced and financed in ways that actually work in the local market.

If you’re interested in building housing that meets local demand and connects into community housing efforts, we’d love to connect.
