They “Duped” em. Down Payment Assistant Programs feeling slighted

I came across this video on a Loundon County Real Estate agents site. I told you before about the Nehemiah and AmeriDream. It has been in front of Congress for sometime now on the HR 6694 – FHA Seller-Financed Downpayment Reform and Risk-Based Pricing Authorization Act of 2008. The DAP will go away if this program passes. You can contact your congress reps by going through AmeriDreams new website called SupportHomeOwnership.org. This is one program that does not cost taxpayers any money. This is funded completely through the agreement of the buyers and sellers.
Thanks Heather for the Vid.
Have a great day.

I support them too and sent a letter in.
Missy Caulks last blog post..Buyers Paying Sellers a Transaction fee NOT in Michigan
OK that’s two people supporting it…Thanks Missy.
Anyone else?
i support them! show your support by going to Visit http://www.DPAGroundSwell.org, a web-based community established to mobilize the growing industry opposition to the October 1 ban on seller-funded downpayment assistance (SF-DPA).
I not only support them but I am trying desperatly to get my ducks in a row for a house we put a bid on months ago. The house is a short sale which takes forever and we have awesome credit but need the downpayment!! Hoping with congress meeting today they will pass a new law reinstating them.
