Description

Provides comprehensive rental and ownership housing counseling services, certified by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).

Also provides general information about HUD-subsidized programs, insurance and fair housing. Additionally, offers a foreclosure prevention program that combines mortgage, reverse mortgage and pre-foreclosure counseling, stabilization loans and repayment plans, to help low-income families in danger of losing their homes.
