| Worried about mortgage foreclosure on your home? |
A Statewide effort called Florida Attorneys Saving Homes has launched a toll-free hotline (866-607-2187) and will take calls from 8 a.m.through 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Callers who fear that they soon won't be able to make their mortgage payments or who have already missed payments but are not yet in foreclosure are urged to call.

| Local Businesses Needed to Stem Foreclosure Crisis |
 The Pinellas County Housing Finance Authority is seeking professionals to participate in the Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP). The following residential services will be selected through a competitive process: remodeling contractors, landscape companies and a real estate agency.
The NSP was a key part of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act (HERA) passed in July, 2008. This program attempts to stabilize neighborhood housing values in the hardest hit areas of Pinellas by acquiring and rehabilitating foreclosed and abandoned homes and returning them to the resale market.
To submit your qualifications, or for more information on how you business can help, visit Pinellas County Community Development. |
