GOODWIN FOR HOMEOWNERSHIP

Russell Antonio Goodwin Sr. recognizes the stark racial disparities in homeownership in Milwaukee and is committed to closing the gaps and increasing minority ownership. He acknowledges that historically, Black and Hispanic residents have faced barriers to homeownership, perpetuating economic inequality and hindering wealth accumulation within these communities. By advocating for policies that prioritize advancing racial equity in homeownership, Russell aims to move people from renting to owning, ultimately building a larger tax base and fostering economic stability.

Russell's commitment to addressing disparities in homeownership involves implementing a multi-faceted approach that includes advocating for resources and support for minority homebuyers. He believes that increasing homeownership among Black and Hispanic residents will not only help reduce tax obligations for constituents but also contribute to building a more equitable and inclusive community.

To achieve this, Russell plans to work towards the implementation of strategies outlined in the Collective Affordable Housing Strategic Plan, such as providing homebuyer counseling, offering down payment assistance programs, and supporting existing homeowners to stay in their homes. These initiatives aim to empower minority individuals and families to navigate the complexities of the homebuying process, access financial resources, and maintain homeownership stability.

Through his dedication to serving the community and addressing systemic disparities, Russell Antonio Goodwin Sr. will strive to create a more diverse and prosperous Milwaukee for all residents. He envisions a future where residents of all backgrounds have equal opportunities to achieve homeownership, build wealth, and contribute to the economic vitality of the city. By fostering a more inclusive and supportive environment for minority homeowners, Russell aims to not only close the racial homeownership gap but also build a stronger and more resilient community for generations to come.
