The second and final webinar in this series will address how HUD approved counseling agencies may provide your SHIP eligible applicants with post-purchase education, foreclosure prevention classes, and one-on-one counseling. The training will also feature the Homebuyer Education Module for those who purchase a home in a Community Land Trust. Research shows that this upfront counseling prepares buyers to have success with homeownership. The presenters will discuss the process of selecting and contracting with a counseling agency. This training will also address the HUD Counseling Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) and HUD’s examination for certifying individual counselors.
