On July 24, I attended a Neighborworks workshop, at Aliante Station and Casino, to assist roughly 1,000 Las Vegas Valley homeowners struggling to remain in their homes. Homeowners also met face-to-face with their mortgage company and a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development-certified counseling agency to work on a solution to help them stay in their home. The workshop is hosted by the Hope Now Alliance, the city of North Las Vegas, U.S. Department of the Treasury and NeighborWorks America Sponsor Homeownership Preservation. Hope Now is an industry-created alliance of mortgage servicers, investors, counselors and other mortgage market participants.
