Buying a house or condo is becoming harder for many people in Minnesota.  

The math is simple. Home costs are rising and most people’s incomes aren’t keeping up. 

Communities need to build more low-cost homes, help buyers with down payment assistance and lower-interest loans, and help current homeowners maintain and stay in their homes.   

Coming up at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, MPR News host Angela Davis talks with Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity’s CEO Chris Coleman about how the nonprofit organization is working on all these fronts to tackle the housing affordability crisis. 

If you are looking for a home to buy, what strategies are you using to keep the purchase affordable? If you recently bought a home that was a financial stretch, what helped you afford it?   

Call us during the 9 a.m. hour at 651-227-6000 or 800-242-2828.
