Mortgage Lending Committee

The Mortgage Lending Committee brings together financial institutions, housing advocates, public officials and others to work to expand home ownership opportunities for low- and moderate-income homebuyers and to sustain home ownership in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. The Mortgage Lending Committee hosts open meetings quarterly on a variety of topics from downpayment assistance programs to mortgage lending trends in the Commonwealth.

At our meetings, you can network with those who share similar interests or responsibilities and discuss topics related to your industry. Each meeting is facilitated by Partnership for Financial Equity co-chairs and staff. These sessions are designed to encourage an informal and collegial exchange of experiences and insights. Membership in Partnership for Financial Equity is encouraged to help sustain our efforts, but is not a requirement to attend meetings.
