Services Homeownership Support

Making home ownership possible

Creating possibilities for housing is core to our mission, and this includes helping homeowners. We offer affordable or no-cost programs for folks to explore first-time homeownership, learn about community land trust homes, and help those facing foreclosure find the answers they need. Through these programs, prospective and current homeowners are supplied with information from a trusted source, and that’s just the boost people need to make sense of complex circumstances.

We’re all about collaboration. Our clients work with us to set goals and understand the best way to move ahead to find successful outcomes.

Client Story

"I grew up in Shakopee, actually down the street from my fiance, Anna. Like many people after college, we wanted to buy our own place. With just getting started in our careers, we didn’t have enough money saved and had been focusing on our student loan debt. We never thought we would be able to afford a place of our own! We had good consistent income but lacked the ability to put down a down payment to get a house payment comfortable for us. We went through the class, and even though I work in the mortgage industry, I learned so much. And it helped us understand the process, each step of the way."
