IAR members Loretta Alonzo and Maurice Hampton took part in a video project spearheaded by the Carnegie Group for the National Association of REALTORS® at the annual Midyear Meetings in Washington, D.C. in May.

Now the Illinois REALTORS®’ comments can be seen in a newly produced video on the challenge of home affordability.

“When working families struggle to find even an affordable starter home, everyone in the household is impacted, including children,” Alonzo said.

The videos are part of a series oriented toward consumers. The videos are anchored by Shari Olefson, who spoke at an IAR Governor’s Housing Conference in Springfield two years ago.
