The Fix Housing First Coalition is a
diverse group of housing
stakeholders – including
homeowner and community groups,
home builders and manufacturers –
dedicated to addressing the root
cause of our economic troubles.
The coalition is advocating for a
short-term incentive for qualified
home buyers that would stop the fall
in home values, restore consumer
confidence, create jobs and lift our
entire economy.
What are some proposed solutions?
1) Continue and enhance
Foreclosure Prevention measures
to keep people in their homes, help
stabilize home prices and bolster
the economy,
2) Implement a viable foreclosure
plan to help stabilize the housing
market. Millions of mortgages are
already underwater and more
adjustable rate mortgages are due
to reset over the next thirty six
months,
3) Enhance the Home Buyer Tax
Credit, and
4) Create below market 30-year
fixed-rate mortgage for home
purchases.
How can you participate? The
Paulding County Builders
Association has form letters ready
to send to our Congressmen. All
you have to do is provide the
letterhead and we’ll handle the
rest. For more information, contact
the PCBA office at 770-443-8472.
