We provide one-on-one counseling sessions for community members who want to purchase a home. During a session, we first look at your readiness to get a mortgage. This involves reviewing your credit report, developing a budget, and discussing the affordability of a mortgage versus a rent payment. Once you feel ready for a mortgage your counselor will help guide you through the process of purchasing, which may include discussing financing and down payment options, explaining how to put together your home buying team, reviewing closing costs, and much more. After each session, we will send you an action plan with specific steps you can take to get closer to your dream of owning a home.
