Amy P. Fennell • March 26, 2020

Earlier today, Louisiana REALTORS® hosted an online forum with U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy. Senator Cassidy and his team provided the latest information and detailed some items regarding the steps Congress has taken to provide support to REALTORS® and small business owners. In the coming days, Senator Cassidy’s team will be putting together a FAQ document that answers a lot of the questions or provides additional information and details some of what was discussed. Specific questions posed during the forum and emailed to LR were compiled and sent to Cassidy’s office as well. A recording of this session is available for playback and any other questions can be sent to: info@larealtors.org .

Want Your Teen to Own a Home Someday? Start Talking Money Now Teens may not be thinking about mortgage rates or down payments just yet, but the money habits they’re building now can follow them for years. And 88% of teens surveyed by Fannie Mae and Junior Achievement said they want to own a home someday. This week’s Consumer Guide: Talk to Your Teens About Money and Homeownership makes those conversations a little easier, covering everything from credit scores and budgeting to debt, renting versus owning and saving for that eventual down payment. So yes, you may have to interrupt the doomscrolling. But helping teens get smarter about money today could put them in a much better position to get the keys to a home of their own down the road.
