Welcome to the
LEGACY NEWARKER PROGRAM

Rooted in Newark. Growing with Newark. Building for Newark.
At KING DEANS LLC, our LEGACY NEWARKER PROGRAM exists to transform lives and honor Newark’s rich heritage by empowering first time home buyers especially dedicated municipal employees and longtime residents to achieve the dream of home ownership.
We hold that a home is more than just a roof overhead; it is the bedrock of stability, pride, and generational advancement. Through thoughtfully designed workforce housing, we do more than build homes, we open doors to opportunity, community connection, and lasting wealth.
Our vision is a Newark where every step forward uplifts its people, allowing the city’s heartbeat to endure in the hands and hearts of those who have always called it home.

Preserving Newark's Heart. Securing Newark's Future.
We believe in growth that uplifts, not displaces. Through partnerships with trusted nonprofits and community leaders, the LEGACY NEWARKER PROGRAM is creating housing and opportunity that honor Newark’s legacy while opening doors to its future.
No one working full time should have to worry about stability. Homeownership is more than shelter it’s dignity, belonging, and the foundation for generational wealth.
By preserving what makes Newark home and building pathways to progress, we’re ensuring that those who built this city don’t just live here they thrive here! They own it! They shape its future!

INCLUSIVE HOMEOWNERSHIP
The LEGACY NEWARKER PROGRAM envisions a Newark where every resident no matter their income, race, or background has the undeniable right to safe, quality, and affordable housing. By championing housing equity, we are doing more than building homes; we are laying down the foundation for a vibrant, inclusive Newark, a city that stands as a gateway to opportunity, hope, and a brighter future for all.

CITY DEVELOPER PARTNERSHIP
At KING DEANS, we believe the path to homeownership should never be walked alone.
That’s why we proudly partner with local nonprofits and community leaders for the LEGACY NEWARKER PROGRAM who share our commitment to making the first time homebuying process as simple, supportive, and empowering as possible. Together, we guide residents every step of the way from financial readiness and credit repair to closing on their first home, ensuring Newarkers have the resources, knowledge, and confidence to succeed.

LEGACY PRESERVED, FUTURES EMPOWERED.
The LEGACY NEWARKER PROGRAM meets Newark’s most urgent strategic priorities by delivering high quality housing that stays within reach for hardworking families. By putting community at the center, our program not only safeguards neighborhood identity, but also creates real opportunities for economic growth and lifelong stability. This is how Newark’s legacy endures and how its future is built.
