Okay.

And do you have the funding for that?
Kim Darga
0:51:13
We interestingly think we may have the funding to get the owner resource center up and running.
0:51:21
We we have the homeowner help desk.
0:51:24
There's some additional funding because of the tax lane sale that we will be isn't to supplement what is in the homeowner help desk.

We are also trying to set up resources for multifamily.
