Here’s how the FOC can help:
Free Homebuyer Education workshops cover everything you need to know to be home-purchase-ready. Some workforce housing projects like Hale Kaiola and Kihei Wailani Village require buyers to complete a homebuyer education workshop facilitated by a HUD-certified agency like the FOC.
Connect you to a team that will help you prepare for buying a home. They can help you access two free credit reports per year, free credit building products, and a free evaluation of home lending products based on your credit score.
Down payment assistance programs for first-time homebuyers. The County of Maui and the FOC can help you find financing for as little as 0% down.
Get a financial checkup to help you optimize your budget, consolidate debt, obtain a line of credit and get access to many more financial tools to help you save towards your first home purchase.
