New Funding to Help Homeowners Facing Foreclosure Due to Economy or Medical Condition

The Emergency Homeowners Loan Program (EHLP), will provide emergency mortgage assistance to homeowners who are temporarily and involuntarily unemployed due to the economy or a medical condition and are at risk of foreclosure. The EHLP can provide eligible homeowners with a 0% interest, forgivable loan that pays past-due mortgage payments, as well as a portion of the homeowners mortgage payment for up to 24 consecutive months, or up to $50,000, whichever comes first. This federal program has specific eligibility criteria, and pre-applications will only be taken from June 20th through July 22nd. Pre-application worksheets are available from www.FindEHLP.org.
