Minnesota Home Ownership Center – Thank you!

I wanted to share an email I received as part of a much larger group of Community Leaders working on the forecloser issue. It is from Ed Nelson the Marketing & Communications Manager for Minnesota Home Ownership Center, www.hocmn.org, to Greg Owens - President of Community Pride Bank in Isanti. The email details the success of a recent telephone call in seminar. Published with permission-


Minnesota Home Ownership Center – Thank you!

Dear Greg:

I want to thank you for your ongoing dedication to preventing foreclosures across Minnesota, and to update you on the telephone seminar that the Minnesota Home Ownership Center recently held for area residents struggling to keep up with their mortgages.

Last Wednesday, Oct. 15, more than 85 people participated in the anonymous conversation. They were able to ask pertinent questions of professional advisors and were able to gain one-on-one help during the seminar.

The telephone seminar was the first effort of its type in the country, and we were able to reach so many home owners because of the generosity and commitment of leaders like you.

With recent crisis on Wall Street and on Main Street, our work must continue. In the coming months, the Minnesota Home Ownership Center will continue outreaching to community leaders and media in targeted areas across the state. We’ll be engaging home owners directly through telephone seminars, workshops and one-on-one counseling from our network of mortgage support advisors.

I look forward to continuing to work with you in our ongoing efforts to sustain home ownership for Minnesota families and communities. Again, thank you for your time and for your commitment to keeping Minnesotans in their homes.

Sincerely,

Ed Nelson
