Education
At Real Estate, Education And Community Housing, Inc. we have been providing area residents comprehensive workshops designed to motivate them to Reach For, Achieve and Sustain the ream of home ownership.
In 2007 alone, 79 families attended the courses offered by R.E.A.C.H. While preparing the families for homeownership, the R.E.A.C.H. programs also helped them meet the educational criteria necessary to qualify for grant assistance. In total, over 3.9 million dollars in grant assistance was awarded to graduates of the R.E.A.C.H. First Time Home Buyer Program!
Our Success continues... by 2011 over 150 families had accessed millions of dollars in grant assitance and became home owners!

The How To's of the HAFA Short Sale Program(HAFA)
Do you currently owe more on your property than what it's worth?
You may be able to walk away from your property without having a foreclosure on your record, and without owing the bank anything. You can relieve yourself of the bad investment, the stress, and the burden. By completing a short sale through the HAFA Program, homeowners can walk away from their properties without having a foreclosure reported on their credit - all while having their mortgage debt completely forgiven by the lender. Even if the homeowner is not in danger of foreclosing, the short sale process allows them to get rid of an investment that is only decreasing in value.
Before you know it, you’ll be returning to purchase a new home.
