More news on state-level housing relief
Novogradac has posted a good update just now on state housing finance authorities' Katrina responses in Mississippi, Arkansas, North and South Carolina, and Colorado. They have also just posted a disaster information page.
[UPDATE: A note from the Colorado Housing Finance Authority says that in addition to using the coloradohousingsearch.com site to list available properties, owners can list properties by calling 1.877.428.8844. This number appears to be for Social Serve, a private organization.]
[UPDATE: Findlaw has an AP story detailing strains on local social service programs as hurricane victims arrive in distant cities. However, AP via Findlaw also says hurricane victims are to be given $2,000 debit cards, which should at least take some of the strain off charities. Here's hoping, however, that the authorities are also prepared to protect debit card recipients from robbery and fraud involving those cards. ... LATER ... Apparently they're not going to issue the actual cards for "a week or two".]
