Housing counselors can help

  • if you need to lower your home mortgage payments.  A housing counselor will work with you to process an application for a home mortgage loan modification.
  • if you are having trouble paying your mortgage and want to explore your financial options.

Why work with a HUD-approved housing counselor?

  • There is no charge to work with a HUD-approved counseling agency.
  • A HUD-approved housing counselor will talk to you about your situation and help you decide what options are best for you.
  • A counselor will explain what documents you will need to provide to your mortgage company and may be able to contact the mortgage company on your behalf.
  • A housing counselor can help you make a budget that will show you how to meet your monthly mortgage payment and other expenses.
  • The counselor will also have information about local resources that may be helpful to you.
