This H.U.D. certified workshop is required for homebuyers to qualify to apply for certain loan programs, and to get on the Chaffee Housing Trust wait-list to purchase a home
Contact us to find out about the next scheduled workshop
These workshops are intended to give potential homebuyers information on the application process, including qualification requirements, how to prepare for getting a mortgage and buying a CHT home. Initial CHT applications will be provided, as well as a checklist of items that potential homeowners will need to compile to prepare for applying for a mortgage. The CHT plans on having its first units available in the fall of 2009. Potential homebuyers will need to plan far in advance to be ready for purchase, including goal setting and home purchase planning and a commitment to working through the details of information gathering for the application process. These workshops are designed to help applicants prepare for the home buying process.
Many potential homebuyers may not realize that they can afford to buy a home through the Chaffee Housing Trust. The CHT is targeting essential workforce county residents, including teachers and school employees, fire/policemen, county and city employees, hospital workers and other caregivers, construction workers, etc. Households with incomes ranging from under $30,000 for an individual, to over $50,000 for a household of five can qualify. Prospective homebuyers are strongly encouraged to come and learn about the opportunities available through the CHT.
