Homeownership for first responders and educators can oftentimes be a difficult goal to reach. Unfortunately, these high-stress and high-commitment careers don't come with high- paying salaries. That's where the Homes for Every Local Protector, Educator, and Responder (HELPER) Act comes in.
The HELPER Act will support those that serve our communities by giving them the ability to afford a home in those communities. By offering affordable mortgage possibilities along with no down payment or monthly mortgage insurance, the HELPER Act is a true bipartisan effort to enrich the lives of our local heroes.
In May 2023, the HELPER Act was introduced in the Senate as S.1514 by Senators Marco Rubio (R-FL), Jon Ossoff (D-GA ), Sherrod Brown (D-OH), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Raphael Warnock (D-GA), and Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV). The House companion, H.R.3170, was introduced by Representatives John Rutherford (R-FL-05) and Bonnie Watson Coleman (D-NJ-12).
