Press Release Summary: Joe Cline, owner of Affinity Properties, contributes monthly

Press Release Body: Austin, TX ( Express-press-release ) October 18, 2008 âEUR" Joe
Cline, owner of Affinity Properties, contributes monthly to Habitat Young
Professionals, helping to pay for the groupâEUR(tm)s housing initiatives.

As the owner of Affinity Properties and an active realtor throughout the city and
surrounding areas, Joe Cline is aware of the difficulties many families face in
obtaining adequate housing. He knows that without proper funding, proper
accommodations cannot be sought. He also knows that given the current state of the
economy obtaining that funding is no easy task. Therefore, he has sought to give
back to the community and increase the possibility that more families throughout the
Austin area can meet the basic need for shelter by contributing to Habitat Young
Professionals.

Habitat Young Professionals is a branch of AustinâEUR(tm)s Habitat for Humanity. Habitat
for Humanity operates nationally providing homes for at-need families through the
donated time, talents and resources of volunteers. In Austin, the group builds
simple, affordable homes, relying on local partner families to offer opportunities
for education, skill development and mentoring so as to break the cycle of poverty
housing and create successful homeowners.

As a sect of Habitat for Humanity, Habitat Young Professionals offers the same
services but through the time and energy of AustinâEUR(tm)s youngest working generation.
These young professionals meet regularly, combining their talents and resources to
give back to the community that is now enabling them to build a bright future. To
date, the group has fundraised more than $60,000 in 2008. Much more is expected
before the close of the year.

There are also many activities to come. Already in October, the group held a housing
dedication, as well as a Habitat Young Professionals Leadership Chair Meeting. On
the 20th there will be a volunteer meeting and on the 21st a happy hour. Similar
events continue throughout November and December, including an Orientation Habitour,
where new volunteers are taken through Austin and explained what Habitat Young
Professionals does, and a ReStore Volunteer Day, a first come first serve volunteer
day during which 25 to 30 volunteers help out Habitat in the Restore. In May,
Habitat Young Professionals will hold its 3rd annual fundraising gala open to all
volunteers as a fundraiser for the organization.

It is this great and inspirational group that Joe Cline, as a young professional
himself, chooses to contribute to, for it is a reflection of his own desire to
serve. Affinity Properties proves time and again that it is dedicated to the people
it works with and for, and will do nothing less than everything it can.

Affinity Properties is a real estate company serving Austin and its surrounding
areas, including Lakeway, Cedar Park, Pflugerville and Round Rock. Joe Cline with
his team members - Peggy Gallina and Doris Cline - work with sellers and buyers of
residential and commercial properties. They offer financial advice through
