Neighborhood
Housing Services helps build and revitalize communities. Through
more than 29 years in community development we’ve built new homes,
helped make aging homes sound and attractive, helped families
refinance expensive loans for better money management and trained
thousands of homebuyers.
We are a full-fledged NeighborWorks
HomeOwnership Center as approved by NeighborWorks America, formerly known as Neighborhood Reinvestment
Corporation. The center provides one-stop shopping for homeownership
resources: grants and low
interest lending, homebuyer
training and counseling, credit
rehabilitation coaching and housing
search assistance.
We've entered into a new partnership with Wachovia, sponsoring a three-part homeowner orientation. Classes include "Is Homeownership Right For You?," "Good Money Management for Homeownership," and "Goal Setting for Homeownership." You can attend one or all of the classes. There'll be FREE dinner and door prizes. Classes will be held at United Community Center's Wesley Center, 3600 N. Crump in Fort Worth. See the new prartnership link for more details.
And, our deep thanks goes to the Sid W. Richardson Foundation for making more homeownership opportunities possible with their generous gift of $50,000 announced April 13.
A new facet of our assistance is FORECLOSURE prevention. We've joined in a nationwide effort to help families before they lose their homes.
And, there's so much new information everyday about homeownership, about credit challenges and predatory lending, we've decided to add a media page -- not only with resources for local journalists but news and current information for consumers.
With
an investment of more than $93 million in the Tarrant
and Parker County communities, we’ve made wealth building through homeownership
accessible to hundreds of families. More than 1,000 families
have bought their first home through NHS. Call
today or e-mail for more information
about homeownership counseling, lending, affordable homes, or for reservations for training classes. 817.624.9454. We’re
here to help. |
