Land Bank Twin Cities, Inc.

A nonprofit organization

About Us

Land Bank Twin Cities, Inc. confronts racial and economic inequities by transforming how real estate is owned, developed, and preserved in the Twin Cities.

We operate as a social impact real estate and finance intermediary, using land, capital, and strategy to prevent displacement, preserve community ownership, and advance racial equity. When market forces move too fast or exclude communities from opportunity, we step in.

Mission

The Land Bank captures strategic real estate opportunities to benefit people with low to moderate incomes, prioritizing BIPOC individuals and communities, and populations facing barriers. 

Our Impact

In the past five years, with support from partners and donors, Land Bank Twin Cities has:

  • Supported more than 1,100 homes for families across the metro area
  • Financed $7 million in loans to emerging BIPOC developers
  • Preserved and developed commercial properties that create jobs and vibrancy in disinvested areas
  • Generated an estimated $184,900 in social impact per housing unit

These numbers reflect the homeowners, households, and developers we serve, including emerging developers.

Why Your Support Matters

The Twin Cities real estate market moves fast. Opportunities to create affordable housing or support community-led development often disappear before nonprofit and public partners can act. We exist to bridge that gap.

We purchase and hold properties until mission-driven developers are ready. We provide instrumental financing and technical support to emerging developers. We help historically excluded communities and developers access capital. Every contribution supports our ability to act quickly when communities need us.

Join Us

Your gift allows us to remain nimble and create space for more families and entrepreneurs building futures rooted in dignity and stability. By giving today and learning more about our mission, you are part of building a more equitable Twin Cities, where opportunity and ownership are within reach for everyone.
