Partner with 1DROP & Build Homes for Good

Join a network of developers building 2,750 homes across the Puget Sound. Access consistent work opportunities with mission-driven projects.

Who We Are

1DROP is a collective of underrepresented real estate developers addressing the Puget Sound housing crisis. We empower developers of color to build housing for all wages, all stages, and all ages while expanding access to generational wealth. Founded in 2024, our founders bring 30+ years of experience with a track record of 650+ homes built.

Why Partner with 1DROP

As we scale our impact, we're seeking skilled subcontractors who share our commitment to building housing that serves all income levels to advance our 2,750-unit development goals through 2030.
