Who’s cutting onions?!
For six years, Tyquan Carr has been investing in mobile homes with the goal of helping families find safe, affordable housing. Recently, that family was his own.
After everything his aunt had been through, including a recent house fire, Carr gathered the entire family under the pretense of showing off his first fully furnished rental. What they didn’t know was the home wasn’t for just anybody — it was for Aunt Mary Helen.
” I knew I had to do something special. So I bought, renovated, and fully furnished this mobile home… and gave it to her for free,” he shared on Instagram.
Completely oblivious to the fact that the home was hers, when Carr’s aunt arrived, she immediately affirmed her nephew and the work that he put into the house. “I like it, I really do. Somebody should really appreciate it…I would move in here!”
In a beautiful moment surrounded by family, Carr revealed the surprise and handed his aunt the keys. The room filled with tears, hugs, and gratitude as the family celebrated together.
A beautiful reminder that showing up for your people will always matter. Welcome home, Auntie!
