These are the values that have inspired our teams since we were founded in 1952 by Ray O’Neill with the steadfast belief that home ownership was the foundation of financial independence. “The opportunity to acquire your own home is a central tenet of our economic freedom and a measure of our success as a country.” – RK O’Neill
