Watch the interview with CMG Financial CEO Chris George:
Crowdfunding your way into home ownership. Here's how from CNBC.
From the article:
You can crowdfund your business, your charity, your product, your vacation — and now you can crowdfund your home.
CMG Financial, a mortgage lender, just launched HomeFundMe, the first online platform that allows borrowers to crowdfund the down payment on a home purchase without fees and with the backing of mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
The majority of millennials today may say they want to be homeowners, but that claim nearly always comes with the caveat…if I can afford the down payment. High levels of student loan debt, high rent and underemployment during the recession have left the largest generation with little savings and diminished hopes of home ownership.
