So many people are trying to blame DPA programs for the foreclosures and other housing market issues we face today, but if the critics were to really investage their claim they would find that in order to receive gift funds from DPA programs the homebuyer has to be preapproved for a home loan. So if homebuyers are not being able to afford to keep their homes, this has nothing to do with DPA programs that are trying to giving people like me, and others a chance to be able to purchase homes, the blame to be the different loan companies that are approving these buyers. Stopping DPA programs from helping the housing market stay a float will have a dramatic toll on the housing market as a whole.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Derrick`</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 03 Sep 2008 15:33:05 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Down Payment Assistance Programs To End October 1st</title><link>http://mikeonportlandrealestate.disqus.com/down_payment_assistance_programs_to_end_october_1st/#comment-2722770</link><description>Hey, to all those that want to support the DPA program, here's a link to log on and speak out. &lt;a href="http://www.DPAgroundswell.org" rel="nofollow"&gt;www.DPAgroundswell.org&lt;/a&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Derrick`</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 04 Sep 2008 20:39:25 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Downpayment Assistance</title><link>http://mikeonportlandrealestate.disqus.com/downpayment_assistance/#comment-2722821</link><description>I agree that it is really important that everyone works together to try to save DPA programs. They have been nothing but a blessing for me and my family in helping us purchase a home, when we didn't think it was possible. I have referred over twenty people I know to a DPA and they have had there homes as long as I have if not even longer. This October make four years!!! Thanks to companies like Nehemiah I was able to make a dream my reality.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Derrick`</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 10 Sep 2008 16:29:08 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
