LAS VEGAS - Marking its first year in operation, the "Home Again: Nevada Homeowner Relief Program" generated more than 12,000 calls, an average of more than 1,000 per month, from Nevadans throughout the state to its toll-free help line (855) HLP4NEV (457-4638).
Initiated by Nevada Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto a year ago, the "Home Again: Nevada Homeowner Relief Program" is a free resource designed to provide guidance to Nevada consumers to determine what resources and assistance may be available to them when purchasing a home or addressing a homeownership issue.
Home Again originates from a multi-state settlement in which Nevada joined 48 states in a $25 billion federal-state settlement with the nation's five largest mortgage banks over foreclosure abuses and unacceptable nationwide mortgage servicing practices.
Residents who would like to learn more about the Home Again program can RSVP for the upcoming housing and consumer protection resources workshop Jan. 29 at Henderson City Hall. The program will run from 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. Counselors will be available on-site to schedule follow up one-on-one counseling sessions.
