The Enterprise Mission
Enterprise’s mission is to see that all low-income people in the United States have the opportunity for fit and affordable housing and to move up and out of poverty into the mainstream of American life.

How We Do It
We advise, finance and assist in the construction and rehabilitation of affordable housing and economic development projects.
We create community development models and policies that can be replicated.

What We’ve Accomplished
More than $9 billion in equity, loans and grants invested since 1982
More than 240,000 affordable homes created
Investing $1 billion in equity, loans and grants annually

Foreclosure Tsunami’s Impact on Communities
40.6 million homes in neighborhoods surrounding foreclosed homes will suffer price decline
Property values for each home located in the neighborhood of a foreclosed house will drop an average of $8,667
$352 billion total decline in property values
Localities will lose $4.5 billion in property taxes and other local tax revenue
In short: whole communities, not just individual homebuyers, suffer from concentrations of foreclosures.

Cleveland Foreclosure Response Pilot
Three Year Pilot Plan impacting 750 homes in 6 Cleveland neighborhoods:
Help 300 families at risk of foreclosure stay in their homes
Demolish 300 obsolete, blighted structures
Redevelop 150 vacant homes for homeownership, lease/purchase or rental housing (60-120% AMI)
![Page 15: Community Stabilization in the Wake of the Foreclosure Crisis Ali Solis, Vice President, Public Policy & Industry Relations Enterprise Community Partners.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f265503460f94c3c94a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Remaining Challenges
Production capacity – need to ramp up quickly
$3.92 billion – great start, not nearly enough
Timely access to discounted REOs in bulk
Untangling REOs from complicated pools of loans
![Page 16: Community Stabilization in the Wake of the Foreclosure Crisis Ali Solis, Vice President, Public Policy & Industry Relations Enterprise Community Partners.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f265503460f94c3c94a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
New Innovation: Community Stabilization Trust
National Community Stabilization Trust (NCST) would coordinate the purchase and disposition of REO properties from lenders, loan servicers, investors
Lead partner organizations: Enterprise, the Housing Partnership Network, the Local Initiatives Support Corporation and NeighborWorks America
![Page 17: Community Stabilization in the Wake of the Foreclosure Crisis Ali Solis, Vice President, Public Policy & Industry Relations Enterprise Community Partners.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f265503460f94c3c94a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
National Approach to Bulk Dispositions
National Community Stabilization Trust
Debt and Equity Financing
Transfer Agent - Servicers to Localities
National Focal Point - REO and Neighborhood Stabilization
![Page 18: Community Stabilization in the Wake of the Foreclosure Crisis Ali Solis, Vice President, Public Policy & Industry Relations Enterprise Community Partners.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f265503460f94c3c94a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Stabilization Trust Mechanism
Acquire REO properties in targeted communities at a significant scale, on a systemic basis and at market-appropriate, risk-adjusted prices
Assemble public, private and foundation resources to fund these acquisitions
Work through local organizations to return the properties to the affordable ownership and rental housing stock for low- and moderate-income families
Provide mechanisms for localities to use Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) funds effectively
