Webinar on Bias in Home Appraisals and the Racial Homeownership Gap

Date:

Oct 27, 2021

Time: 2:00 PM

Location: https://event.on24.com/wcc/r/3388955/82017F95CE977B24F313BA58FC390D65

The National Credit Union Administration is hosting a webinar on homeownership, the wealth gap, and bias in home appraisals beginning at 2 p.m. Eastern on Wednesday, October 27.

The 90-minute webinar will feature NCUA Chairman Todd M. Harper and other distinguished speakers from the NCUA, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, NeighborWorks America, National Urban League, Freddie Mac, and the Urban Institute. The webinar will highlight how systemic and institutionalized discrimination in the U.S housing system has created a wide wealth gap between races. Experts will share strategies on closing the homeownership gap and eliminating appraisal bias, due to its direct impact on wealth accumulation for minority homeowners. The broadcast will also explore the collaborative efforts of federal agencies and other stakeholders to initiate valuation and housing policy reforms for more equitable outcomes in communities of color.

Registration for this webinar is now open via this link. Participants will be able to log into the webinar and view it on their computers or mobile devices using the registration link. They should allow pop-ups from this website. Participants can submit questions in advance to WebinarQuestions@ncua.gov with the subject line “Homeownership Gap Wealth/Appraisal Bias.” Participants with technical questions about accessing the event can email audience.support@on24.com.
