The Urban League of Palm Beach County Helped Reduce my Mortgage by $350/month!

Mrs. Gina Remy is a married African-American woman with one child. Unfortunately, after an increased loan payment and a reduction in income, she began struggling to stay current.
After receiving notice of a payment increase, she turned to a friend at church who had previously received assistance from the Urban League.  Mrs. Remy immediately called the Urban League, and within a week she was scheduled to meet with a housing counselor. The counselor assessed the client’s finances; submitted a request for mortgage assistance to her servicer, and by the end of December 2015, she was approved for a HAMP trial modification which became permanent in April 2016. Under the new rate she was able to save $350 a month, with a 2% interest rate. Mrs. Remy was so pleased that she made sure to spread the word to her Pastor and others in the church who might also need help!

If you are a homeowner concerned about making your mortgage payments, help is available. Our foreclosure counselors will work with you and your servicer to try to minimize your losses and to provide a helping hand you can hold onto.
