Event Description:
Homeowners make good citizens. They are more likely to vote, volunteer, and help keep neighborhoods clean and safe. Their children do better in school and are less likely to get into trouble. In addition, homeownership creates generational wealth that helps break the cycle of poverty.
Yet, the demand for attainable housing in West Tennessee far exceeds the supply, and the opportunity cost of failing to meet the need is staggering!
Please join us as we explore ways to make the dream of homeownership a reality for all citizens. Discover how we can work together to build more houses and stronger communities across West Tennessee.
Member of the West TN Home Builders Association will receive 2.0 hours of Continuing Education Credit toward Residential Continuing Education (RCE) license renewal requirements.
