June is here, which means that it is officially Homeownership Month in Loudoun County and across the county. This special occasion recognizes the value that owning a home brings to families and neighborhoods across the nation. It also brings light to the idea that the American dream is alive, as there are numerous national and community-based efforts that work to make homeownership a reality for everyone who wants it. In recognition of this, DAAR would like to highlight upcoming events hosted by the County’s Office of Housing and various partner organizations in the community.
In celebration of Homeownership Month, DAAR will be co-sponsoring a free virtual session for real estate professionals and others interested in fair housing.
