HOMEBUYER PREPARATION PROGRAMS
HOMEBUYER PREPARATION PROGRAM
Your dream of owning a home can be a reality, even if you have credit issues or lack the funds for a down payment. In this advising program, an INHP certified homeownership advisor will help you prepare your finances, improve your credit score and save for a down payment.
Working with an INHP certified homeownership advisor for up to 24 months, you’ll build a personal homebuying plan to help improve your credit, reduce debt and save for a down payment. You’ll also participate in INHP classes about budgeting and credit.

HOMEBUYER CLUB
Homeownership is possible, even if you have financial barriers such as a bankruptcy or foreclosure. If financial challenges make buying a home a longer-term goal - more than two years in the future - this advising program might be right for you.
Through a series of monthly workshops, you’ll get tips and tools to help you reach your financial goals and prepare to buy a home. You’ll meet with your workshop group for up to 12 months and after completing the series, you’ll understand how to:
- Make improvements to your credit
- Pay down or resolve outstanding liens/judgements
- Establish a secured credit card
- Increase your savings
