Tony Fernandez, Director of Construction

For decades, Affordable Homes of South Texas, Inc. (AHSTI) has provided affordable, energy-efficient homes to the low-income residents of the Rio Grande Valley. 100% of their homes are built to achieve ENERGY STAR® certification. By providing an opportunity to own affordable, high-performance homes, AHSTI hopes to enable everyone in the Valley to experience the comforts associated with energy-efficient homeownership.

AHSTI is a 501c3 non-profit corporation dedicated to providing the disadvantaged resident of the Rio Grande Valley with homes that are verified to provide superior energy efficiency and comfort. In fact, their homes meet the requirements of the ENERGY STAR® program so much so that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) selected them as the recipient of their Leadership in Housing award. AHSTI’s homes also come with BUILT TO SAVE® verification across Magic Valley Electric Cooperative communities.

AHSTI has a long history of turning the homeownership dreams of the Valley’s underprivileged into reality. Since their humble beginnings, they’ve transformed into a leading player in the housing industry, renowned for quality, energy efficiency, and comfort; and they do it all for the homeowner’s sake. High-performance certification means reduced energy consumption, while high-quality construction ensures long-term durability and healthy indoor air circulation. Thanks to this, AHSTI homeowners can expect to save on utilities, maintenance costs, and medical bills.

In addition to building high-quality homes, AHSTI provides other valuable services to the Valley, including homebuyer education, bi-lingual homeownership counseling, emergency repair grants, and mortgage and loan guidance. Together with their high-quality, energy-efficient homes, AHSTI is doing its utmost to ensure even the least well-off residents in the Valley have access to energy-efficient and comfortable living standards, secure long-term homeownership, and peace of mind.

Call AHSTI or visit their website to learn more about how they can help you build the home of your dreams.

Congratulations to Affordable Homes of South Texas, Inc. on being recognized as a 2023 Leading Energy Efficient Builder!
