Still Hope for Struggling Homeowners

You, like many of my neighbors are experiencing huge hurdles today--from reduced work hours and furloughs, to out and out unemployment. As a result, bills are becoming more difficult to pay. Cutting wherever you can (reducing power consumption, shopping with coupons, going without visits to the doctors) still is not helping.

For all of us in today's economy and today's situations, there is still help out there. Below are some resources you WANT to tap into.

SAVE THE DREAM TOUR...arrived today at the Los Angeles Convention Center and continues through Monday, October 4. This event will be open 24 hours non-stop until the end. This way you don't have to worry about taking time off from work (or can make that interview!). Simply attend off hours.

NACA’s historic "Save the Dream Tour" has been an incredible success with hundreds of thousands participants in thirteen cities. Thousands of homeowners received same day solutions having their mortgage payments permanently reduced by over $500 and many by over $1,000 a month often with interest rates reduced to 3% or 2% and sometimes a principal reduction. NACA has legally binding agreements with all the major lenders/servicers to achieve this. All of NACA’s services are FREE.

 Take advantage of this NOW! Visit NACA's website to sign up in Los Angeles and for more information.

HELP WITH THE FOOD BILL... there is an amazing organization out there called The Treasure Box. Basically once a month, they offer boxes of food worth $100 for only $30. A typical box can almost feed a family of four for a week and they have additional boxes (like Protein, Seafood, Seniors, Kids and Healthy) for purchase. Not only can you purchase for yourself, you can donate a box to continue the charity.

You can purchase as many boxes as you want as long as they are still available. The Treasure Box is then delivered to your area (most likely a church) for pick up.

I'm not just promoting this. I've used The Treasure Box myself and was very surprised. One, it is what was promised (a box of quality food worth $100 for $30). Two, with a few bucks left in my wallet, I was grateful to stretch my budget without having to impact the food lines and shelters for those who so desperately need those services.

Check out The Treasure Box.

THERE ARE STILL JOBS...even though it may seem that we are all fighting for the same jobs, there are still some out there. Visit Available Jobs in the City of Los Angeles.

In the meantime, I'll see you around the neighborhood.
