The Jefferson County Housing Task Force is pleased to announce its first Foreclosure Prevention and Financial Resource Fair for those who are facing financial hardship, concerned about not being able to make their next mortgage payment, or simply wanting to improve their financial health. This free event is open to the public.
The fair will be attended by mortgage loan servicers, ClearPoint Credit Counseling Solutions, Beyond Housing, United Way, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and a representative from the Office of U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill. No registration is required.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)-approved housing counselors will be available for one-on-one sessions to discuss mortgage and credit concerns. The fair will also connect attendees to representatives from a local realtor, title company and insurance agency for no sales-based advice. These representatives will take questions from homeowners in order to assist them in choosing options that best fit their needs.
