"The
American
Dream
Program" |

Home
ownership
is
often
seen
as
a
fundamental
component
of
the
"American
Dream".
However,
for
an
increasing
number
of
working
families
in
our
areas,
this
dream
has
become
unattainable.
Facing
some
of
the
highest
real
estate
expenses
in
the
United
States
with
often
inadequate
down
payments
and
rising
interest
costs,
many
Bergen
County
residents
find
themselves
unable
to
translate
hard
work
and
dedication
into
home
ownership.
In
response
to
this
dilemma,
the
County
Executive,
through
the
Bergen
County
Division
of
Community
Development,
has
formed
an
innovative
public/private
partnerships
to
provide
mortgage
financing
at
below-market
intrest
rates.
The
primary
goal
of
the
program
is
to
provide
the
opportunity
to
attain
the
"American
Dream"
for
many
working
families
in
our
country. |

|
| Expanding
home
ownership
will
contribute
four
fundamental
advantages
for
families
in
Bergen
County: |
- A
commitment
to
personal
financial
security;
- A
commitment
to
strengthening
families
and
good
citizenship;
- A
commitment
to
community;
- A
commitment
to
economic
growth.
|
| Expanding
home
ownership
will
strengthen
our
local
economy
and
provide
an
opportunity
to
achieve
affordable
and
social
success.
In
partnership
with
local
banks
and
community
organizations,
Bergen
County
will
make
the
"American
Dream"
of
home
ownership
a
reality
for
many
working
families.
