While low prices and low interest rates have recently inspired more and more people to buy homes, some would-be buyers are still spooked by uncertainty about their job security. The California Association of Realtors is attempting to address those fears and encourage more people to buy homes by offering to pay up to $1500 per month for six months toward the mortgage payments of qualifying new home owners who lose their jobs. More information can be found on CAR's website.
