Free Local Mortgage Counselling

If you are in trouble with your mortgage or think you may be in the future, this will interest you. What is below is from my local Real Estate Board's newsletter.

Sign Up TODAY! - Open Forum (September 3-6th) to Kick off 3-day Anti-foreclosure Event in Surprise
Surprise AZ (August 1, 2008) An open community conversation featuring a panel of experts on home finance is set for September 3, kicking off a three-day event where residents with mortgage related worries can get free counseling on how to hang on to their homes.

The forum, approved by the Surprise City Council and organized by the Ad Hoc Committee on Foreclosures and Credit Union West, will begin 7 at p.m. at Radiant Church at the corner of Reems Road and Paradise Lane in Surprise. Expert panelists will respond to written questions from the audience or questions e-mailed through a city web site.

On September 4, 5 and 6, forum attendees can meet with HUD-certified counselors for free one-on-one counseling about issues relating to home finance. Sign up for the free appointments is available at the forum event on September 3.

“As in many communities around the country, there are people in Surprise who are concerned about losing their homes," says Ad Committee on Foreclosure Chair Monica Davis. “We are being proactive here in Surprise. A good way to get people started on the path of retaining home ownership is by offering an educational forum and free counseling.”

More information on the forum and counseling is available at www.surpriseaz.com. The site includes an e-mail link for residents to send questions for the panel to consider, and a video about the event and the free counseling.

The community forum will be videotaped by city cable channel Surprise11, which streams live on the internet. A video file of the forum will be posted on the net for viewing at any time.
