Dreams become reality

“...both believed that homeownership would be impossible for them to acheive.”

Today, I want to share the success stories of two Brunswick Housing Authority clients who have accomplished their dreams of homeownership by utilizing programs and loan packages designed for this purpose.

Being single mothers, without the benefit of two inco
mes, they had to work very hard to accomplish their goals. Some of the up-front issues both had to resolve are typical of the obstacles that discourage the majority of low to moderate-income families. Those issues included bad credit, lack of downpayment funds, low income, questions about the benefits of homeownership over renting and many others. Generally, both believed that homeownership would be impossible for them to acheive.

It took perseverance and a lot of patience. Purchasing a home is never easy. There are programs available that you can take advantage of for virtually all income levels and family situations. This includes homeownership programs offered by organizations for profit and not-for-profit; local government and state run programs. There is no reason you can’t become a homeowner. Take the first step toward a better future and owning your own home.
