Home Ownership
One-on-One Home Ownership Counseling
St. Ambrose provides one-on-one home ownership counseling to first time homebuyers who are interested in knowing the facts about buying a home and low interest rate loans. In a typical counseling session, a counselor will explain mortgage loan qualifications, assist with credit repair, review budget, review loan products intended for first-time buyers, discuss up-front money needed, inform the client of current special grants and programs that are available, answer questions, and give appropriate referrals, if needed.
Home Ownership Workshops
St. Ambrose offers free monthly workshops for first-time homebuyers who are thinking about purchasing a home. The workshops cover budgeting, credit, selecting a home, selecting a loan product, the home purchase process, avoiding foreclosure, maintenance, and much more. Attending the workshop is not equivalent to a one-on-one counseling session. All attendees must also have a one-on-one session before a Counselor's Certificate is issued.
Home ownership workshops cover budgeting, credit, selecting a home, selecting a loan, the homebuying process, avoiding foreclosure, maintenance, and much more. Pre-registration is required. There is no admittance without prior registration. To register, call Anthony Parran, 410-366-8550 x221, or Pamela Petty, 410-366-8550 x222.
