Working with income-eligible owners to address individual circumstances that could lead to foreclosure, and with residents of properties in foreclosure to find a path to ownership.
Free counseling services for income-eligible residents who own or occupy a home in, or at risk of, property tax or mortgage foreclosure.
Our repair services address the needs of the new homeowners created by our Make It Home and other creative purchase programs for low-income households.
