A New Deal program to help long-term families to have home. Tho program lowered down-payment for homes down from \(50\%\) down to only \(&lt;10\%\). This is part of Roosevelt&rsquo;s New Deal to lower interest rates and increased national home ownership rates. This could have been attributed to programs to stabilize home prices. This specifically helped white families: favoured single-family homes.
