Housing Services for Homeowners & Renters

Do you have questions about housing? Should you buy a home? Refinance your house? What if you can’t make your mortgage payments? Or your credit isn’t great? Or perhaps, you’re trying to stay in your home? For most of us, our home is one of the biggest factors in our budget. GreenPath’s HUD & NFCC certified counselors can answer your housing questions.

Student Loan Debt? You Have Options

With evolving student loan policies and repayment programs, it’s more important than ever to stay informed. If your loans are delinquent, you could now be at risk of default – so understanding your options and taking timely action is essential. Whether you’re current, behind, or unsure of your status, GreenPath is here to help.

Review Your Credit Report

Regularly monitoring your credit can alert you to errors, protect you from fraud, and provide you important information to strengthen your credit score.
