MassHousing, the state’s affordable housing bank, provided more than $1 billion in home loans in 2012 — a record amount and another sign the housing market is recovering, officials said Thursday.
Last year, 4,710 Massachusetts residents with low or moderate incomes got help buying or refinancing property through the agency, said Thomas R. Gleason, MassHousing’s executive director.

The question is has the state Inspector General or State Auditor audited this program to reveal the yearly losses through defaults or fraud? How much does this program cost the taxpayers? Why can't we just have everyone on the same playing field? If you can't afford a house--rent! Stop the handouts!!!!!!!!!!
