Lang Honored by NDHFA: Greatest Producer of NDHFA's Affordable Home Loans in 2016

BISMARCK, N.D. - March 3, 2017 - PRLog -- North Dakota Housing Finance Agency (NDHFA) honored several of its partners as Champions of Affordable Housing during its Statewide Housing Conference in February.

NDHFA's homeownership programs help first-time buyers, households that previously owned a home and need assistance buying again, and special needs households including single parents, veterans, and households with disabled or elderly family members in the home. Champion Awards are presented to NDHFA partners based on the volume of loans produced and participation in locally sponsored affordable housing activities.

"The Champion awards recognize and celebrate the work of individuals, non-profit organizations, public agencies, and private sector businesses that make exceptional affordable housing contributions in North Dakota," said Jolene Kline, NDHFA executive director.

One of those Champions is Travis Lang of Cornerstone Bank in Bismarck, ND. Lang was the greatest individual producer of NDHFA's affordable home loans in 2016. He originated 56 mortgages, providing more than $11 million in financing.

Lang says, "I believe in home ownership, and am proud of the impact it has had on my own life. With the affordable home financing available from NDHFA, I am happy to be able to help others achieve what I have felt when I purchased my first home."

Being born and raised in Bismarck/Mandan, Lang knows the true value of being a North Dakotan. He has a passion to help people achieve the dream of home ownership.
