| Affordable Housing Committee:
The purpose of the Affordable Housing Committee (AHC) is to provide knowledge and understanding of the home buying or refinancing process as it pertains to low moderate income individuals and families. This is achieved through numerous seminars and expositions designed to attract clientele that may not realize their home purchasing ability and the proper steps necessary to reach that goal. The events are planned and/or conducted by members of the AHC to make the public aware of the possibilities that exist to assist them in obtaining or retaining affordable housing in the Columbus market area.
