Exhibitors are being sought for the 11th annual Home Ownership for People Everywhere Expo, scheduled for June 21 at the Largo Cultural Center. This day-long home buyer fair, sponsored by the Community Service Foundation of Clearwater, offers dozens of table top exhibits and a series of classes on mortgages, budgeting, credit and the buying process.
Last year's HOPE Expo attracted 500 people.
Real estate agents, lenders, title companies and nonprofit agencies that work with low- to moderate-income home buyers are sought. "We're particularly looking for people who are committed to working with first-time buyers," said expo cochair Duke Tieman, a real estate agent with Bruce Taylor Inc. in Clearwater.
Exhibitors should contact Linda Kemp at (727) 539-8300; Valerie Lashley at (727) 567-4632 or Ralph Emmanuelli at (727) 466-0784.
