THE AFFORDABLE HOMES GROUP (TAHG) (PINKSHEETS: GRHI) officials met with US Congressional representatives recently in Washington DC to introduce a proposed low to moderate income housing construction and job development project for rural America. Company officials recommended the adoption of the project as a Pilot Model for the Nation to demonstrate its potential for immediately triggering construction activity in a targeted 12-state region where the demands for new homes and the need for jobs creation is evident. TAHG targeted states would represent 25% of the Nation.

The proposal, if accepted, would be a catalyst to the stimulus packages adopted by the US Government. In addition to providing flexible underwriting as a Pilot Program, the TAHG program creates 150,000 houses for sale or as rentals to low to moderate income families. In 6-12 months, the rentals would be converted to mortgaged properties in many distressed rural American communities. The four-year project would create at least 500,000 new construction jobs and would stabilize rural communities and their states with businesses that would assist states dealing with declining revenue base.

With mounting concerns in Washington that stimulus legislation is moving slowly in job creation, officials were intrigued by the "shovel ready" nature of the TAHG construction project. Its focus is to include the Gulf region of the country, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas, where hurricanes' scars remain in the form of displaced homes and Midwestern state regions, which annually experience cyclical tornado weather patterns.

The potential for job creation was a particularly captivating feature for the elected officials as the Nation's unemployment ranks recently climbed to 9.5% in the last quarter and triggered intensified concerns about existing Stimulus Initiatives that have received funding thus far.

Subsequent discussions point to the possibility of a positive federal response to TAHG within the next 45 days, as 2009 last quarter fiscal funding will increase beginning in July 2009.
