1: A national poll in May 2020 found that 78% of the public believes our elected leaders are not putting enough attention on people’s need for help to pay for their housing during the coronavirus outbreak. What do you believe is the role of government in ensuring everyone has access to housing?
Everyone should have access to affordable housing because it is a necessity, a basic human need - shelter, security.
I will advocate for affordable housing , shelters and funds from the government for assistance to help pay for rent/ mortgage.
I am a real estate agent, and we all know it exists. I would like to build more affordable buildings in predominantly Caucasian neighborhoods so that all can have equal opportunity living.
Classes that assist individuals about home loans, what to do when you fall behind and home insurance. The more an individual knows about their homes, insurance and mortgage, the more likely they will ask for help and get solutions, instead of avoiding and doing nothing until it's too late.
