The City of Cordele and Crisp County are pleased to announce the launch of a new initiative, the “25 by 25” campaign, through their Land Bank program. This innovative campaign is aimed at revitalizing blighted properties within our community to create much-needed affordable housing options for families. The “25 by 25” campaign seeks to renovate 25 properties by the year 2025, transforming neglected and abandoned buildings into safe, affordable homes for residents. This effort is part of a broader strategy to enhance the quality of life in Cordele and Crisp County by addressing housing needs and promoting community development. “Our goal is to provide families with affordable housing by bringing new life to properties that have long been neglected,” said the City of Cordele. The ’25 by 25′ campaign is a critical step toward improving our neighborhoods and offering more housing opportunities to those who need them most.

The campaign is not just about improving individual properties; it’s about uplifting entire communities. By turning blighted properties into homes, the City of Cordele and Crisp County aim to stimulate local economies, increase property values, and foster a stronger sense of community pride. They invite residents, investors, and community partners to get involved in this transformative effort. Whether you’re a homeowner, a prospective buyer, or simply interested in community revitalization, the “25 by 25” campaign offers opportunities for everyone to make a difference.
