Community Action Southwest’s Home Ownership Center offers free individual appointments with HUD-certified housing counselors to assist residents of all income levels in Washington and Greene counties with credit repair, the home-buying process and foreclosure prevention.

For homebuyers, counselors work with residents to determine what they can afford, review their credit scores, determine how credit scores can be improved, discuss options for downpayment assistance and explore pre-qualification for suitable loan programs.

For existing homeowners, counselors work with residents to help them refinance when needed and to enroll them in programs designed to prevent foreclosures through the national Foreclosure Mitigation Counseling Initiative.

They also are introduced to other support services at CAS, including its weekly series of financial literacy classes. In addition, listings of local Realtors, homebuilders, mortgage lenders, home insurers and local housing programs also are available.

For more information, call 724-225-9550, ext. 421.
