Public-Private Partnerships

The successful public-private partnership between Miami-Dade Economic Advocacy Trust and SFBR is emulated in the growing number of participating housing professionals.  One of the major reasons for such a high participation rate is the incorporation of a fiscally sound fast-track system in qualifying and approving homebuyers for deferred loans.

Understanding consumer guidance and education are vital links to helping ensure responsible maintenance of a mortgage and avoiding pitfalls detrimental to home retention, MMAP Trust also partners with non-profit organizations and Community Development Corporations.
