When it comes to the biggest financial investment of homeownership, down payment assistance programs can make all the difference for black homeowners in San Francisco. ?? 1?? They make closing the deal on a home more financially attainable. ? This removes a significant hurdle that would otherwise exclude many black families from being able to purchase a home. 2?? They provide grants or no-interest loans to cover the difference between upfront costs and the amount required for a down payment. ? This can help a black family achieve the dream of homeownership. 3?? They often have more lenient underwriting guidelines that take into account the unique financial circumstances of marginalized communities. ? This recognizes historical inequities and gives black applicants a fairer chance at approval. #downpaymentassistanceprograms #blackhomeownership #financialempowerment #communitydevelopment #racialequity

The racial wealth gap in the US is stark. For every $1 of wealth held by a white family, a Black family had just $0.25 in 2022, according to the?Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. Black families face unique, racist barriers to creating wealth, from homeownership to business ownership, says Salene Hitchcock-Gear, president of individual life insurance at Prudential. “That is not by accident, that is more by historical design, [through] programs, disadvantages, all of the things that we know about in terms of redlining, and denial of credit for small business, and on,” she says. To work towards closing the racial wealth gap and building generational wealth for Black Americans, it’s important to understand what obstacles stand in the way. Here are three main barriers to building generational wealth, as well as some solutions that could help close the gap in the future. https://lnkd.in/ghwJWB9c #diversity #deib #dei #financialadvisors #wealthmanagers #blackamericans

?? New Brief Alert! ?? Trapped by Design: How Predatory Lenders Exploit Black Atlanta by Kindred Futures Title lending is a predatory practice that drains wealth from Atlanta’s Black communities, exacerbating economic instability and widening the racial wealth divide.
