Today, Congressman Patrick McHenry (R-NC-10) announced that he will host a Homeownership Promotion and Foreclosure Prevention Seminar on January 7 at the J.E. Broyhill Civic Center in Lenoir from 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM.
The seminar is designed to give Western North Carolina families an opportunity to receive expert advice on a range of housing issues. It will begin with a roundtable discussion of housing issues, featuring Congressman McHenry, the HOPE NOW Alliance and NeighborWorks America, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), the North Carolina Housing Coalition, and the Olive Hill Community Economic Development Corporation.
Attendees will then be able to visit booths set up by participating organizations to receive personal, private advice on their particular housing concerns.
“As a realtor, I know that buying and owning a home can be a complicated process. Given the recent turmoil in the housing market, I know that many folks could use more information about what’s going on, and a confidential place to discuss their own situations. I am pleased to partner with these organizations to bring this kind of assistance to Western North Carolina,” said Congressman McHenry.
“This seminar will be an invaluable resource for homeowners and those looking to purchase a home. My goal is to help every family in Western North Carolina realize the American dream of homeownership.”
