GO Northwest provides group education workshops on a variety of financial management topics including monthly First Time Homebuyer classes. See the schedule of upcoming classes here.
GO Northwest provides 1 on 1 counseling to help potential buyers ready themselves for homeownership. Certified housing counselors help clients analyze their budget, credit, mortgage loan products and incentive programs to develop an agreed action plan.
GO Northwest counselors are trained to assist homeowners facing financial hardship and mortgage delinquency. In 1 on 1 sessions, counselors help clients develop a crisis budget including community resource referrals. They ensure clients understand the options they have with their mortgage company to avoid or cure delinquency, as well as, any outside programs that can help prevent loss of home and protect equity position. In the case that there are no options to retain the home, counselors will assist clients with making a dignified transition to alternative housing whenever possible.
