BOSTON, MA -- Home improvement expert and "sweat equity" pioneer Bob Vila has been watching the mortgage crisis unfold with dismay, particularly how it affects homeowners who have invested timeless effort and energy on their home purchases.
"The dream of home ownership is shared by all Americans but lately has become nearly impossible for many families," Vila says.
Two new articles on Bob Vila's popular Web site, www.BobVila.com, offer advice during this tumultuous time. "The Mortgage Crisis: How It May Affect You" helps homeowners understand the current real estate market and the role it plays in their mortgages, and "How to Avoid Foreclosure" provides resources for assistance and steps to take if you are in danger of losing your home.
As the country struggles to stabilize the housing crisis and stimulate the economy, Vila proposes a call to arms. "The mortgage disaster isn't like the weather -- it's man-made!" he says. "It won't be reversed overnight. Our government and business leaders must change direction by putting together the best minds available and dumping the hacks and cronies who have been running the show since the beginning of the new century. We need new thinking and a return to good ethics."
Based in Boston, www.BobVila.com is the leading site for the do-it-yourself community from the most trusted name in home improvement. "At Bob www.Vila.com, we've tried to take the mystery out of home improvement while promoting energy conservation, historic preservation and good design," Vila says. Content contains articles, how to videos with step by step instructions, videos from Bob Vila shows, tips, a glossary of terms, blog, fix it guides, podcasts and contests. Visitors can also participate in active user-driven forums for advice and help from other homeowners.
