Homeownership Housing Counseling
Homeownership Housing Counseling Centers provide counseling in order to help local residents purchase homes and reduce the number of properties that are lost as a result of foreclosure. Additionally the following services are provided:
·
The Counseling Centers assist first-time homebuyers who are required to have pre-purchase counseling and certification in order to qualify for a mortgage.
·
Pre-purchasing counseling explains the home buying process and all of the basic responsibilities and obligations of owning a home.
·
Individuals or families who are at risk of losing their homes because they are 31 or more days late (Delinquent) in paying their mortgage can get advice on how to prevent foreclosure. To avoid losing their homes it is critically important to get counseling at the earliest possible point that they begin to have trouble paying the monthly mortgage payments.
