YONKERS—Officials with Westchester Residential Opportunities Inc. reported that more than 600 prospective homebuyers attended its 2023 Fair & Affordable Housing Expo here.
The program, which ran from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on April 29, was held this year at the Yonkers Riverfront Library. In addition to real estate service providers that were on hand, the program also included presentations that covered:
• First-time Home Buying
• Grants for closing costs and down payment assistance
• Applying for affordable housing (rental & sales) and
• Rental assistance, eviction prevention and fair housing.
A host of county, state and city dignitaries attended the event, including New York State Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins, Deputy Westchester County Executive Ken Jenkins and Yonkers Mayor Mike Spano.
Event sponsors included: The Hudson Gateway Association of Realtors, Yonkers Public Library, Bank of America, Citizens Bank, SONYMA, Valley Bank, Chase, M&T Bank Mortgage Division and Emigrant Mortgage.
This step in the organizational reshaping includes a staffing makeover that will impact 41 positions and eliminate 20 open roles that were redundant or that could be integrated elsewhere in the organization.
While growth in the city was faster than statewide growth (6.5%) and metropolitan area growth (7.4%), it lagged the nation’s overall 10.3% rate of housing growth.
