Upward mobility:

A drastic increase in funds and support to help lower to middle income tenants become homeowners.

Homeownership stabilizes communities. Homeownership programs should be expanded so that lower- to middle- income residents would be able to acquire a home. Targeting tenants as future homeowners would decrease the amount of rentals in our neighborhood, provide more stability and less population change, as well as grant lower income residents an opportunity to save money through their investment.
