This Labor Day, GROWTH Homes Managing Director Ed Gorman shared something with the team that we thought was worth sharing a little more broadly.

"As I think about Labor Day this year, I think about American history in the latter half of the 19th century and the forces that were in play for workers seeking better lives for themselves and their families.

Remarkably, they organized themselves into potent economic forces. Craft and industrial guilds willing to stand up against well-armed employer militias because they believed their collective well-being was worth fighting for.

We think of that period as some grainy black-and-white footage that disappears into the haze of our fractured attention spans. But many of your forebears were on one side or the other of that tension. This weekend, take a moment to think about the people whose shoulders you're standing on.

Labor Day became a federal holiday in 1894 under Grover Cleveland, largely as a political gesture toward labor activism that had otherwise been suppressed during his term. There was even debate within the labor movement about whether to recognize it at all.

Today, Labor Day is more a signal of the end of summer than a celebration of the working class whose sacrifices built the American middle class. But the things we take for granted aren't appreciated until they're lost.

Our past matters. Let's not lose it."

Happy Labor Day from all of us at GROWTH Homes!

A huge thank you to the Birmingham Realtist Association for including GROWTH Homes in last night's August General Body Meeting. We are also incredibly grateful to President Tonya Smitherman and 2nd Vice-President LaTonya Butler for their leadership and for fostering relationships that connect builders, realtors, and the community in a meaningful way. Ronald Reese and Vereen The Realtor represented our team beautifully, and we could not be prouder. Partnerships like this one are how we move the needle on homeownership access in Birmingham.

Last week, we had the pleasure of welcoming Realtors to ShadowBrook for a Broker's Open, and it was a great reminder of what makes this community special.

Agents had the chance to connect with our team, walk the homes, and see firsthand what ShadowBrook has to offer. The energy was warm, the conversations were real, and the community is coming alive in the best way.

If you have buyers who are ready to make a move, homes are available now at ShadowBrook. This is a growing Birmingham community with thoughtfully designed new construction that more families can actually access.

We would love to help your clients find their way home here. Call 205-448-8597 or visit www.growth-homes.com to learn more!

Happy 4th of July, and happy 250th birthday, America! On a day built around freedom and opportunity, it's worth remembering that homeownership has always been part of that promise. Birmingham has its own chapter in this story too.

The Fair Housing Act of 1968 didn't happen in a vacuum, it happened because people here and across the country refused to accept that where you could buy a home should depend on who you are. On this holiday, we're thinking about how far that fight has come, and how much work is still in front of us.

Read more about 250 years of that story below.

The American experiment has proven, among other things, that ownership creates opportunity.

Somebody in Birmingham is going to buy their first home this month.

Maybe it's you!🤩

Zillow ranked Birmingham #2 in the country for first-time buyers in 2026, and if you know this city, you know exactly why. It's the close-knit neighborhoods, growing job market, and community feel that's just hard to find anywhere else.

We're here for it, and we're building for it.

Come see what GROWTH is doing at ShadowBrook in Pratt City, Oak Hill in Ensley and the gorgeous new construction we have going up in Woodlawn. If you're ready to stop renting and start owning, we can help you!

Jacksonville leads the way for first-time buyers this spring, according to Zillow’s ranking

A huge thank you to Community Economic Development Group for coordinating such an important conversation. CEDG brought together local realtors to talk about the future of homeownership in Birmingham, and we are so proud to have partners who take that kind of initiative to move this mission forward.

More families in this city deserve a path to owning a home. We are glad to have CEDG helping us build it.
