Portland Tribune Has City of Portland African American Drop in Home Ownership Rate Story.

Story from Steve Law is HERE in printer ready format.

Story references Census data I recently posted [post is HERE] and a quote from interview with me. Quotes from Economic Fairness Oregon, Realty Trust broker, Portland Housing Center, and African American home owners helped by PHC are also included in the story.

NOTE: African American Alliance for Home Ownership will have their annual home ownership fair in Portland on October 29th at Emanuel Hospital. Details HERE. 

Fair includes exhibits/presence of multiple lenders, agencies, and non profits. Noticed that this years Fair will include education session on first time home buyers facilitated by Jon Gail, formerly at Portland Housing Bureau, and now operator of new web based education/referral site for first time home buyers, First Home Advisor.
