The Scalable Pathway from Renters
to Owners
The Castle Project transforms livable, low-cost homes into affordable homeownership opportunities using the Slow Flip method.
We acquire homes in undervalued markets and resell them using state-compliant Installment Contracts. Each pilot is a 15–50 home portfolio with defined capital requirements and secured
returns.
