Northbay Family Homes is a nonprofit housing developer working in Marin for over 30 years. Our mission is to facilitate homeownership opportunities and to help current homeowners retain their homes. NFH is a proactive leader and committed partner in developing affordable homes for the workforce.
Pre-Purchase Counseling Programs: NFH provides education and counseling to persons interested in buying a home. We deliver resources to working families interested in buying a home closer to the workplace, including down payment assistance and loan counseling services. We apply our affordable financing and real estate expertise to help first time buyers enter the market & become owners. Please see our webpage on the homeownership programs we offer: http://www.nfh.org/homeownership.html .
Programs for Employers: Our aim is to make Marin a more economically sustainable place by helping employees reduce commute times, resulting in cleaner air and greater quality of life. We work closely with Marin employers – helping them help their employees purchase homes closer to their place of work. We have the strategies and leveraging tools, the employer benefits with higher employee morale, better productivity and retention of quality employees that will want to invest their time and energy back into the company. NFH administers a government-approved program of community assisted shared appreciation (CASA™) loans for buyers through programs designed for employers, community foundations and bank investors. We make homeownership happen!
Homeownership Preservation & Foreclose Prevention Counseling: NFH provides Homeownership Preservation Workshops and one-on-one counseling with homeowners with concerns about the current real estate market, home values, loan status and how the economy affects their ability to keep their homes. We provide confidential, one-on-one counseling to help homeowners review their current financial situation and develop a workable plan to meet their needs. NFH Counselors serve clients by identifying the financial causes of the mortgage related distress and helping borrowers create a budget that will chart a path of corrective action. NFH reviews the options available to meet homeowner’s mortgage obligations. NFH determines the cause of the delinquency and explores actions to cure the delinquency and, if possible, avoid foreclosure. NFH counselors offer assistance in dealing with lenders before and after a Notice of Default is filed and ways to bring the mortgage current or modify the loan terms. We are here to help!
