Still Empowering: A Message from our Homeownership Team

We hope you are staying healthy and safe. As you may know, Housing Trust is working remotely and all of our programs are still operational – and this includes our work helping first-time homebuyers.

Purchasing a home is complicated work and our team is here to help you. The first step is to complete our Homeownership Assistance Online Intake Form – which can be done by you at anytime.  If you have already completed an online intake form and have questions on your next step, email us at EmpowerHomebuyersSCC@housingtrustsv.org

After you have completed the Homeownership Assistance Intake Form and attended the 8-hour Homebuyer Education class, are found to have a 3% down payment and the required income to manage the new housing payment, you can fill-out the Eligibility Application online completing a Pre-Purchase Review with our Homebuyer Specialist.

The 8-hour Homebuyer Education class is available online and administered by Project Sentinel. You can find details on how to take the class on their website or call (408) 470-3730.

As always, if you’d like to talk with us, please feel free to call (408) 703-3837 ext. 301 or email EmpowerHomebuyersSCC@housingtrustsv.org . We look forward to helping you on your journey to homeownership.
