Michigan Housing Authority Launches New Cable Show

'House Michigan!' Addresses Homeownership, Affordable Housing, Ending Homelessness and Vibrant Cities and Neighborhoods

LANSING, Mich., July 18 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- House Michigan!, a new cable show designed specifically for Michigan residents, will air on cable stations statewide beginning in July, Interim Executive Director Keith Molin of the Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA) announced today. The new program will provide practical information for Michigan residents regarding homeownership, affordable rental housing, ending homelessness and creating vibrant cities and neighborhoods.

"This is a program that goes right to the core of what's vital to the quality of life for every person living in the state of Michigan," Molin said. "Residents will learn about affordable, safe and secure mortgage loans, mortgage refinancing loan options, how to prevent foreclosure, affordable rental housing options, including rental for people with special needs, and where to go for help with homelessness and domestic violence issues."

House Michigan! programming will provide realistic advice to improve the quality of life for everyone and lead to vibrant cities and neighborhoods across the state.

Molin hosts the program and interviews invited guests, including MSHDA staff who administer Authority programs and outside partners who participate in MSHDA related initiatives.

House Michigan! has been released to more than 80 cable stations statewide and is expected to run multiple times throughout each month. New shows will be produced monthly. Check local listings for air dates and times.

MSHDA is a quasi-state agency that provides financial and technical assistance through public and private partnerships to create and preserve safe and decent affordable housing, engage in building vibrant cities and neighborhoods, and address homeless issues. MSHDA's loans and operating expenses are financed through the sale of tax-exempt and taxable bonds and notes to private investors, not from state tax revenues.
