“Whether you’re seeing it on TV or reading the news, it’s hard to avoid tough news about the economy and the housing market,” says Ceridian LifeWorks senior vice president and general manager, Zachary Meyer. “Foreclosures are at an all-time high and mortgage companies are struggling to survive. Cerdian’s goal is to help the public understand and navigate tumultuous times in the housing market and help with anything that may be affecting them personally.”
The live, moderated online chat is designed to help people share information and advice about the housing market with the guidance of an expert. The discussion will address the uncertainty of the housing market, foreclosure and how to avoid it and the impact of mortgage company buy-outs on the market.
