David Ebanks is a North Miami resident and an experienced homeowner throughout Florida. David immigrated to the United States from Honduras at the age of 10. He graduated from Florida State University with a degree in Social Work. Today, David has a passion for helping out other people in their process of homeownership for small gestures such as a cup of coffee.
During the interview, David Ebanks shares his own experience as an immigrant and his desire to go back home to Honduras when he first settled in the United States. He discusses barriers to homeownership and recalls his own experience with the housing market and generational wealth that came from his mother. Similar to many young people, David tells us about his own financial illiteracy and his experience with credit cards, mortgage, and credit as a young adult. He also talks about the inequality when it comes to purchasing a home for many people such as people of color and people who have been incarcerated.
