There's something magical about the phrase "Home Sweet Home." It evokes warmth, security, and a sense of belonging. At Neighborhood House, we understand that a home is more than walls and a roof — it's a stabilizing force, crucial to the well-being of those we serve. That's why our housing counseling team is dedicated to helping clients achieve and maintain their version of "Home Sweet Home."
Whether you're dreaming of owning your first home, working to keep the home you have, or searching for a stable place to rent, the path to "Home Sweet Home" can be challenging. But you don't have to walk it alone. Let's explore how we can help you at every stage of your housing journey.
First-Time Homebuyers
Buying your first home is an exciting milestone, but it comes with its share of challenges. Our knowledgeable housing counselors will guide you through the entire process. We'll help you understand mortgage options, navigate the market, and budget for often-overlooked costs like property taxes and insurance.
Through our educational workshops and partnerships with local banks, we'll boost your financial health and sharpen your homebuying skills. Whether you're establishing credit for the first time or need a fresh start, we're here to empower you with the knowledge and tools you need to make informed decisions.
Foreclosure Prevention
Your home is where life happens, and we're committed to helping you keep it that way. If you're facing the risk of foreclosure, don't panic. Our team will work with you to explore alternatives like loan modifications, repayment plans, and refinancing options.
Our goal is to keep you in your home while protecting your credit and financial stability. Even if you're not facing immediate challenges, we're here to advise you on all things home and ensure your property is in tip-top shape.
Housing Stability
A rental can be just as much a "Home Sweet Home" as any other. Our Housing Stability Program offers vital support for renters, providing up to $1,800 per month for up to three months in financial assistance for rental arrears, late fees, and security deposits.
If you're facing eviction, we're here with support and resources to help you maintain your housing stability. We'll help you understand your rights as a tenant, navigate lease agreements, and find affordable rental options that meet your needs.
Financial Empowerment
Financial stability is so important. That's why our support extends beyond just helping you buy, rent, and maintain affordable housing. We're committed to empowering you financially, increasing your income potential, and building your savings. With our housing counselors by your side, you'll be equipped to make informed decisions and navigate the housing market with confidence.
Our team offers guidance on budgeting, credit improvement, and savings strategies, all tailored to your unique situation. Through workshops and one-on-one counseling, we provide you with the financial knowledge and tools to secure your housing future.
Always By Your Side
A love for home and those who live there shapes our approach to serving you. That means our relationship doesn't end when you get your keys or sign your lease. As your housing needs evolve, we're here to provide ongoing guidance and support. Our team is always a phone call or email away, ready to help you navigate any housing challenges that arise.
Whether you’re starting your journey towards homeownership, trying to stay in the home you have, or looking for more affordable housing options, we're here to provide advice and solutions tailored to your needs.
