<p>From financial relief for homeowners to gathering supplies to donate, the industry is working in overdrive to make sure the people in Houston and surrounding areas get the support they need to rebuild.</p>

<p>This is by no means a complete list of lenders who are giving back. If you were not mentioned and have a way for people to support you in your efforts, feel free to leave a comment below or shoot me an email.</p>

<p>HousingWire, like much of the rest of the industry, and America, is dedicated to helping in the relief process where possible.</p>              <div class="advertisement ad-mobile-only" id=""><div class="advertisement" id="div-gpt-ad-rect-a-mobile"></div></div>


<p>Below is a handful of ways the industry is donating to help in the relief, along with ways you as a reader can help.</p>

<p>Fort&nbsp;Mill, South Carolina-based <strong>Movement Mortgage</strong> is selling custom-made #heartsforhouston T-shirts that will raise money for Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.</p>              <div class="advertisement ad-mobile-only" id=""><div class="advertisement" id="div-gpt-ad-rect-b-mobile"></div></div>


<p>The shirts, as seen in the picture below, have an outline of Texas and the words, &ldquo;Texas-Sized Hearts for Houston.&rdquo; &nbsp;The cost is $20 and all the proceeds go to hurricane relief efforts.</p>

<p><a href="https://movement.com/blog/2017/08/31/movement-heartsforhouston-shirt-raises-money-hurricane-relief/" target="_blank"><img alt="HH" src="/ext/resources/images/editorial/BS_ticker/2017/september/MM.png" style="width: 250px; height: 331px; float: left;" /></a></p>              <div class="advertisement ad-mobile-only" id=""><div class="advertisement" id="div-gpt-ad-rect-c-mobile"></div></div>


<p>Thanks to the <strong>Movement Foundation</strong> underwriting the cost of the shirts, the full $20 goes directly to disaster relief.</p>

<p>&ldquo;Our hope is that this shirt campaign not only delivers much needed financial support, but awareness as well,&rdquo; Movement CEO Casey Crawford. &ldquo;Jesus noted the great foundational commandments in Mark 12, with the second being &lsquo;Love your neighbor as yourself.&rsquo; This immediately comes to mind when I see corporate America rallying in such an impactful way during these tragic times.&rdquo;</p>

<p>The shirts will only be for sale through Sept. 8 and can be <a href="https://movement.com/blog/2017/08/31/movement-heartsforhouston-shirt-raises-money-hurricane-relief/" target="_blank">found for sale here</a>.</p>

<p>Coppell, Texas-based <strong>Caliber Home Loans</strong> announced it partnered with the <strong>American Red Cross</strong> to provide shelter and supplies to families affected by Hurricane Harvey.</p>

<p>The lender established a matching gift program for all Caliber Home Loans employee donations received through October.</p>

<p>&ldquo;As a Texas-based company, we&rsquo;re proud to be able to support those in need within the Gulf area &ndash; both in our state and beyond,&rdquo; said Sanjiv Das, CEO of Caliber Home Loans.</p>

<p>On top of quickly assembling its first response team to assist customers and process claims related to the storm, the <strong>Assurant Foundation</strong>, the charitable arm of <strong>Assurant</strong>, donated $100,000 to the American Red Cross for its Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Assurant Foundation also will match 2-for-1 all Assurant employee contributions made to the American Red Cross through September.</p>

<p>&ldquo;Since Harvey made landfall, our employees have been working to support customers with property damaged by this unprecedented hurricane, always focusing on how we can best help them navigate the many hardships storms like this can bring,&rdquo; said Michael Campbell, president of Assurant&#39;s&nbsp;Global Home business unit. &ldquo;We are only beginning to see the extent of the vast devastation caused by this disaster and want our customers to know that we are committed to assisting them through the recovery and rebuilding process.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Coming to aide in the relief in a different way, <strong>Notarize</strong> is offering free notarizations to those impacted.</p>

<p>&ldquo;Like many in America, we&rsquo;ve wondered both individually and collectively how we can do our part to help. Frankly, we weren&rsquo;t exactly sure what that would be, but our team has been searching for ways we could make life even a little easier for those who have lost everything,&rdquo; the company <a href="https://notarize.com/blog/free-notarizations-for-hurricane-harvey-victims/" target="_blank">said in a blog post</a>.</p>

<p>As the situation in Houston unfolded Notarize learned that there are several forms that must be notarized after a natural disaster.</p>

<p>While Notarize said it doesn&rsquo;t know all of the forms, FEMA or other federal, state or local government agencies may require some forms. For example, FEMA may require savings bond replacement forms to be notarized.</p>

<p>As a result of the growing need for notarizations, Notarize said, &ldquo;If you are a flood victim or suffered other damage from the storm and need a Federal, State or Local agency form notarized, we will offer the notarization to you for free.&rdquo; For more information on this, check out the <a href="https://notarize.com/blog/free-notarizations-for-hurricane-harvey-victims/" target="_blank">Notarize blog here</a>.</p>

<p>Donations, like the ones listed above, have poured in from all across the financial industry.</p>

<p><strong>BBVA Compass</strong>, whose holding company is headquartered in Houston and which has a significant presence in the city, announced&nbsp;Monday&nbsp;that its foundation will donate $250,000 to the American Red Cross and the Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund to aid disaster recovery efforts in Texas. &nbsp;It also plans to raise, online and at its branches, up to $250,000 in employee and customer contributions to the two organizations for a total contribution of up to $500,000.</p>

<p>The big banks <a href="https://www.housingwire.com/articles/41108-wells-fargo-and-jpmorgan-chase-each-donate-1-million-for-hurricane-harvey-relief-efforts" target="_blank">also stepped up</a> to help with <strong>Bank of America</strong>, <strong>Wells Fargo</strong> and <strong>JPMorgan</strong> <strong>Chase</strong> all pledging $1 million to help in the relief efforts.</p>

<p>Homebuilder Lennar also pledged at least&nbsp;$1 million&nbsp;to the <strong>United Way of Greater Houston Flood Relief Fund</strong> to help victims of Hurricane Harvey. Beyond the immediate&nbsp;$1 million&nbsp;donation to the fund, it will also match contributions dollar-for-dollar made by its 9,000 associates nationwide.</p>

<p>And lastly, we here at <strong>HousingWire</strong> wanted to support our Texas neighbors however possible. For the entire month of September, HousingWire is going to donate 50% of all new magazine subscriptions to hurricane relief. In order to purchase a magazine subscription, <a href="https://www.housingwire.com/products/432-HousingWire-Magazine-Subscription-Offer-to-Support-Hurricane-Harvey-Survivors" target="_blank">go here</a>.</p>

<p>HousingWire&#39;s donation, along with the others listed above, is only&nbsp;a small portion of the growing amount&nbsp;of the ways&nbsp;America is giving back. Whether it&rsquo;s a buying a shirt, sending food or donating money, Houston can use all the support it can get as America rallies together to help.</p>

        [Subscribers only] Multigenerational living, where two or more adult generations live under the same roof, is becoming a growing trend in the U.S. Currently about 19% of Americans now live in a multigenerational household, the highest level since 1950. That amounts to about 60.6 million adults in 2014, up from 57 million adults in 2012. And homebuilders have taken notice, designing houses specifically catered to this segment.

        Would-be homeowners are inundated with picture-perfect examples of new and remodeled homes brimming with upgrades. But in the real world, homebuilders and investors must calculate the rate of return on these sometimes fleeting trends, weighing what buyers want with what they can actually afford. This feature looks at which features buyers of different age demographics consider the most important, and what that means for sellers.

        We’ve found that the handling and posting of payments during bankruptcy has been a widespread issue in our testing environment. Specifically, there is increased risk exposure in pre-and post-petition payment application and treatment, both inside and outside of the bankruptcy plan. Servicers and sub-servicers have created manual workflow workarounds to address the issue, however, it does open the servicer up to more exposure to calculation errors.
