Depending on your goals and readiness, we may recommend a First Time Home Buyer Workshop, offered online and at various locations throughout the region. The course covers finding, financing, purchasing and maintaining a home. Participants receive a certificate of completion that is necessary to access several down payment assistance programs and special mortgage products.
Need time to increase your savings, improve your credit, or just maintain a workable budget? The Financial Education Workshop will provide the tools you need to reach your financial goals.
If you would like one- on- one assistance, Way Finders will assign a Home Buying Counselor to work with you. Together you’ll determine your financial readiness to buy a home.

Imagine the desperation of living on the streets with two young children. This was Derek's reality until he was referred to Way Finders. We were able to help him find a short-term housing solution and a temporary job. Several years later, with a long-term job and some unfinished business to tend to, he returned to Way Finders. Derek had always dreamed of owning a home and with out help he started to make his dream a reality. We provided financial education and credit counseling while Derek did the heavy lifting. Today, he and his sons have a permanent address and a very bright future.
