The legislation is aimed at helping distressed homeowners avoid foreclosure and stabilizing government sponsored housing enterprises.
In addition to its longtime support of many of the measures, AREAA was successful in putting into law an important provision that will help more Asian American and immigrant consumers obtain low cost financing. Working with a coalition of multi-cultural groups, AREAA successfully included a provision requiring HUD to carry out a pilot program to establish an automated solution for borrowers who have limited traditional credit histories for determining their creditworthiness.
The use of alternative credit ratings such as rent, utilities and insurance payments will assist many Asian Americans and immigrants as well as first time homebuyers in qualifying for FHA insured mortgages. Often times these borrowers must look to less affordable unconventional mortgage programs, regardless of their income or assets, due to a lack of traditional credit history. AREAA believes that this provision will help more of our members and support our mission of expanding housing opportunities. AREAA Expands Coast to Coast With its sights set on reaching out to more local communities in 2008, AREAA has recently introduced two new chapters: AREAA of Washington State and AREAA DC Metro Chapter.
Based in Seattle, the Washington State chapter held its inaugural meeting on February 8th with over one hundred supporters in attendance. This chapter represents AREAA’s first major presence in the Pacific Northwest and is led by Windermere associate broker, Jason Watabe. To learn more about AREAA of Washington State, please visit their website by following the link below.
AREAA DC Metro Chapter was founded by Song Hutchins of Wells Fargo and is led by chapter president, Vinh Nguyen. The chapter is celebrating their launch with a gala event on March 25th. Please visit the AREAA DC Metro website for details.
AREAA values the time and dedication of the local chapter leaders, and most of all, commends all AREAA members for their commitment to advancing homeownership opportunities for the Asian American communities they serve. Connect with the AREAA chapter near you
