Program Launched for Black Homebuyers in San Diego County
With home rental prices on the rise, a new program is working to make it easier for Black families to purchase a new home in San Diego County. The program is offering thousands of dollars to help with down payment and closing costs.
According to the UT, the median home price in the San Diego market reached up to $750,000 this summer. Local leaders say opportunities to purchase are even harder for black families.
"31 percent of black families in San Diego own their own home versus 65 of white families, that's unacceptable. It's always been unacceptable," says Ricardo Flores with LISC San Diego.
Saturday morning (August 21st), local agencies joined forces to announce the launch of the San Diego Black Homebuyer Program. It will be operated through The Urban League of San Diego County (San Diego, CA). The goal is to provide stability for families around the county.
