The Affordable Housing Center will provide Northampton tenants and homeowners with a broad range of options for consumer education, referrals, advocacy and information to assist low
and moderate-income households to maintain housing stability until they are able to attain sustainable homeownership. The services at the Homeownership Center will help renters who
aim to become homeowners by focusing on their current situation and the mounting challenges that many LMI households face including student loan debt and high rental costs that effect
their ability to attain homeownership. Maintaining a steady track is essential for these households as they set goals to move forward to a future home purchase.
