Chief Executive Officer of Home HeadQuarters, Kerry Quaglia, said, “Home HeadQuarters has served more than 100 households with mortgage delinquencies in the last two years as a result of the pandemic. The funds provided by Senator Mannion and NYS will be critical as some of these customers move through the court system to resolve their foreclosure crisis. Preventing foreclosures benefits entire neighborhoods by limiting vacant homes that often end up stranded in limbo, dragging down surrounding property values. We thank Senator Mannion for his continued support of our programming.”
