Homes 4 the Homeless and NESSEL Housing sign first U.S. licensee to deliver disaster relief homes
As Texas continues to recover from devastating floods, one San Antonio entrepreneur is stepping up with a bold solution. Barron Perales has officially become the first U.S. licensee of Homes 4 the Homeless and its NESSEL Housing division, a move aimed at bringing rapid-deployment disaster relief housing and long-term affordable homes to communities across the state.
Perales will introduce NESSEL’s innovative factory-built housing models, including the E3 and V9 units, which are designed to be set up quickly, built to last, and remain affordable. The goal is clear: provide safe shelter for families displaced by disaster while also tackling the larger affordable housing crisis in Texas.
“In moments like this, speed matters, safety matters, and dignity matters,” said Steve Schneider, CEO of Homes 4 the Homeless. “Barron Perales brings the drive, experience, and community commitment we need to respond to disasters like the Texas floods while also addressing the state’s ongoing affordable housing crisis.”
From Emergency Relief to Community Development
Perales plans to hit the ground running in his first year, focusing on deploying NESSEL homes to flood survivors and laying the groundwork for small, sustainable communities across Texas. His team will work alongside government agencies, nonprofits, and private developers to provide real solutions where they are needed most.
Who is Barron Perales?
Perales, who is based in San Antonio, has built a career in sales, operations, and business development. Known for creating high-impact projects, he says his decision to partner with NESSEL Housing comes from a simple belief: housing is the foundation for stability and opportunity.
