Available for Download: Briefing Materials on Housing & Economic Recovery Act

The first of two special briefings on the new Federal Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008, hosted by the Housing Alliance on September 11, was a success. The event sold out and the presentations were very informative. For those of you who missed it, but still want to learn more about the opportunities for Pennsylvania created by this new law, we have some great materials available for download.

Please see the links below for handouts and PowerPoints on:

foreclosure related provisions (a HAPA summary);
a general summary by Citizens Housing and Planning Association;
neighborhood stabilization (by LISC);
PHFA and Section 8 changes (from CBPP);
and FHA modernization, hope for homeowners and neighborhood stabilization (from HUD)

.
