Closing the Racial Homeownership Gap
Type
Affordable Housing
Homeownership among Black, Hispanic, and Native American households remains lower than that of white households across all U.S. states. This panel will explore how data-driven actions and targeted strategies can help close this gap. Specifically, we will examine the critical roles of assessments and appraisals, the opportunities created by strategic partnerships and proactive investments, and how the real estate community is developing better offerings to support local wealth creation.
