June is National Homeownership Month 

National Home Ownership Month is dedicated to highlighting the benefits of owning a home, advocating for housing affordability, and helping Americans achieve the dream of homeownership and build long-term generational wealth. Canopy is pleased to kick off National Homeownership Month with a podcast dedicated to learning more about how to use down payment assistance and the Down Payment Resource (DPR) tools to help your clients realize the dream of homeownership.

Canopy Uncovered Podcast: Down Payment Assistance Is Infrastructure: Are You Using It?

Down payment assistance programs are no longer a “nice-to-have”—they’re essential to expanding access to homeownership. In this episode, Joan B. Goode, President of Canopy MLS, sits down with Rob Chrane, CEO of Down Payment Resource, to explore how these programs are reshaping affordability. They discuss the cost of not using available assistance, how opportunity is lost or delayed for buyers, and how AI and data-driven tools are making it easier than ever to connect clients with resources that can get them to the closing table.
