🏡 June is National Homeownership Month — Here’s Why It Matters

June is more than just the start of summer — it’s National Homeownership Month, a time to recognize the importance of owning a home and the powerful impact it has on families, communities, and future generations.

Here in Connecticut, we’re fortunate to live in a state rich with history, charming towns, and vibrant neighborhoods — from shoreline escapes to quiet suburbs and bustling downtowns. Whether it’s your first condo in Stamford, a colonial in Trumbull, or a family home in West Hartford, homeownership remains one of the most meaningful milestones a person can achieve.

Why Homeownership Month Matters

Homeownership is about more than just having a place to live. It’s about:

• Building equity and long-term financial security

• Creating stability for families and future generations

• Investing in your community and neighborhood pride

• Empowering personal growth through independence and ownership

This month, organizations across the country — including local housing agencies in Connecticut — are raising awareness about homebuyer education, down payment assistance programs, and tools to help make the dream of homeownership more accessible for everyone. In fact, this Thursday from 4-8pm, our team will be one of the featured Vendor Sponsors at the Building Neighborhood Together annual Homeward Bound event in Bridgeport! It's a free community event where you can network with local real estate and mortgage professionals, enjoy free pizza and refreshments, plus win some door prizes!

Let’s Celebrate Together

At the Valerie King Team, we believe everyone deserves a place to call home. Whether you’re looking to buy your first property, expand your investment portfolio, upgrade your current space, or explore your options, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
