Fair Housing 50th Anniversary Celebration

Recently, Bobby Griffith, CFO of JL Gray and President of Apartment Association of New Mexico, joined other housing industry leaders in speaking at the state capitol in Santa Fe. The occasion was to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Fair Housing Act (Civil Rights Act of 1968). Mr. Griffith spoke on the importance of this act and how it applies to affordable housing in rural communities. A large percentage of New Mexicans live in these rural areas with one-third of New Mexicans living in rental housing. Mr. Griffith was joined by Art Garcia, State Director of New Mexico USDA, Rural Development, Jay Czar, Executive Director of New Mexico Mortgage Finance Authority, Connie Hettinga, President of Realtors Association of New Mexico, John Garcia, Executive Director of New Mexico Home Builders Association, Jack Thompson of New Mexico Mortgage Lenders Association and Steven Anaya of Realtors Association of New Mexico.

Recent troubles showcase amazing JL Gray team

The Roswell Summit Apartments were undergoing repairs when several leaks were discovered that required major intervention from NM Gas and several plumbers. Residents were without gas for up to seven days, but a caring and energetic team of JL Gray staff jumped in to take care of those residents. Gina Arambula, Jonathan Venturo, Francis Aragones and Shaundean Sisneros spent evenings and weekends cooking hot meals for residents to make sure they were well fed. Gina and Michael provided electric heaters and kept the community room open. Residents were very grateful for all the extra work the JL Gray team put in. "Never in my life have I seen people pull together and genuinely care for our needs like this staff did." said Jenna Vaughn. “I am so proud of our team,” said Frankie Barnes. “They went above and beyond their job description.” The property is back up and running now, but the team is still ready to tackle any challenge that comes there way.
