WHY:
Owning a home is the most important way working families build assets and long-term financial stability. For more than 30 years Self-Help Credit Union (www.self-help.org) has been building stronger communities through affordable home loans. We specialize in working with first-time home-buyers, rural residents, immigrant families and borrowers with imperfect credit.
As a mortgage lender, we know that overly-stringent lending requirements can pose a barrier to homeownership, especially people with modest incomes or imperfect credit histories. We work closely with borrowers who have faced financial difficulties, with a special focus on those underserved by mainstream lenders. We offer home loans and also refinances to help our members build increase financial stability.
Self-Help Credit Union is part of the Center for Community Self-Help (Self-Help), a leading national community development financial institution headquartered in Durham, NC. Since 1980, Self-Help has provided over $7 billion in financing to 150,000 families, individuals and businesses. It helps drive economic development and strengthen communities by providing responsible financial services; lending to individuals, small businesses and nonprofits; developing real estate; and promoting fair financial practices across the nation. Through its credit union network, Self-Help serves thousands of people in California, Florida, Illinois, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and Wisconsin.
