Bee Is A Proud Hometown Heroes Mortgage Partner

Hometown Heroes Mortgage 

Bee is proud to offer Hometown Hero mortgages! 
In Florida, we love our hometown heroes. First responders, those who teach us, care for us when there’s an emergency, help raise us, and active duty military and veterans hold a special place in our hearts. Lots of these professionals risk their own lives in the line of duty, doing their jobs, faithfully serving their communities.

Very often, these friends and neighbors feel a calling to do their jobs, not because the pay is good–which oftentimes, it’s not–but because they care about their communities and live a life of sacrifice. They think of others, not themselves, do more for others than they do for themselves; and when duty calls, they’re the first to respond. Some of these heroes pay the ultimate price in their jobs. For this and many other reasons we can’t name, we honor those that represent the best of us, as there is no greater love than a man lay down his life for his friends. 

To help these heroes live a better life in our state, Ron DeSantis has rolled out a program designed to help them become homeowners with their meager salaries. The purpose of the Hometown Heroes program is to provide home buying assistance for those who are committed to serving our communities every day with their lives. From a young age they teach us, educate us, and train us for productive life. All too often, some of these heroes never make it home while others are the reason you can go home safe at night.
