Leaders of the homeownership programs of 10 state housing authorities came to Myrtle Beach in mid-May to the 2022 Southeastern Homeownership Directors Conference.

The event was hosted by SC Housing and included sessions on lender compensation and management, rising interest rates and building programs for the future.

With rising interest rates combining with record home prices in recent months, the affordability of the American Dream has become a very hot topic.

“It was a great meeting as we all learned a lot from each other,” said Steve Clements, director of single-family programs at SC Housing. “And, of course, everyone was complementary of South Carolina’s ability to host a great meeting.”

SC Housing has a number of programs to assist those wishing to purchase homes, especially first-time homebuyers. SC Housing’s programs typically include down payment assistance as well as fixed, long-term interest rates.
