Here's
How The Full Cycle Lending Model Can Help You:
Home
Buyer Education: We help you determine if homeownership
is right for you, help you through the process of buying a
home step by step, and provide support after you purchase your
home. We can explain our program to you during an introductory
meeting or phone conversation, or send you a package of information
that explains our services. For more information about our
services, please contact the Center in your region. If you
decide to work with us, you complete a confidential personal
profile. Next you attend one of our monthly Homebuyer
Workshops. There is a small fee
for a credit report and workshop materials. We work together
on your home buying plan. From there you can take advantage
of all our other services and programs listed below.
Credit
and Budget Counseling: If you need to rebuild
your credit or would like guidance on budgeting toward
buying a home, we offer private financial counseling.
Financial
Assistance: We help you find the most affordable
home financing options, which may include help with
down payment and closing costs. Our staff can help
you contact the lender you choose and works with you
every step of the way.
Special
Lender Programs: We guide you to the resources
that help you buy the most home for your money.
Home
Maintenance Education: Make the most of your
home and keep it in great shape by participating in
on our home maintenance/repair and lawn and garden
care workshops led by experts in the field.
Home
Rehab Planning and Loans: We work with you
to make a post inspection rehab plan to ensure you
have the resources to fix any problems in your new
home.
Delinquency
Intervention: If you get behind in your mortgage
payments, we work with you to get you back on track
and in good standing.
