Audio By Carbonatix

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec 10, 2025--

The Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (FHLB Dallas) has awarded more than $4.3 million in Pathway Fund grants to assist 42 organizations with preventing or remediating heirs’ property issues, such as resolving issues with a property title or establishing a will.

The grants, awarded through 15 participating FHLB Dallas members, will be used to clear an estimated 3,020 titles and prevent heirs’ property issues by executing wills or deeds for more than 7,520 individuals. The funding is also expected to assist nearly 31,000 people with training and education.

“Pathway is more than a funding program—it’s a commitment to preserving family legacies and stabilizing communities,” said Greg Hettrick, senior vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas. “These grants empower organizations doing the hard work of helping families secure clear title to their homes and land, which is foundational to building generational wealth.”

Pathway Fund grants are awarded through FHLB Dallas member institutions to support homeowners within FHLB Dallas’ five-state District. No grants were awarded in New Mexico this year. The following shows funds awarded by state:

Arkansas: $150,000
Louisiana: $1,767,402
Mississippi: $600,000
Texas: $1,821,519

Heirs’ property refers to property inherited without a will or legal documentation of ownership. As property is passed down, each successive generation generally results in more heirs being added to the inheritance. The absence of a deed or will can make it more complicated to obtain a clear title to land or homes as time passes. The inability to provide clear title can make it very difficult for families to transfer, or obtain loans on, the impacted property.
