Housing & Financial Counseling

Not ready to purchase a home but ready to start working toward that goal? Just looking to improve your financial situation? FDDC is here to help you learn more about improving your finances to help you reach your goals, all while incorporating your ancestral experience with new skills! You’ll learn:

  • Awareness of resources
  • Saving
  • Budgeting resources, and
  • Using innovative new tools to maximize resources.

Looking to become a homeowner? Not sure where to start? We offer one-on-one homeownership counseling where you can meet privately with a homeownership counselor to outline, review, and reach your homeownership goals.

Having the ability to financially recover from unexpected events is part of good financial health. A great first step is saving. We offer financial resilience training to help you prepare for unexpected financial events and make sure you’re covered in case of an emergency. Our counseling services will cover financial awareness, saving, budgeting, and how to use innovative new tools to maximize your resources.

Interested in financial counseling with us? Our counseling services are available in a one-on-one format, in a group format, and virtually, or over the phone. We’ll go over your needs and concerns and help you to create a plan that is tailored to your financial situation.

Homebuyer education classes help you to make informed decisions about budgeting, borrowing, and choosing the right professionals during the home-buying process.

As a Maine hoMEworks Homebuyer Education provider, we offer live 8-hour workshops throughout the year that provide you with a solid foundation to become a successful homebuyer. Many loan products and down-payment assistance programs require first-time homebuyers to complete the Maine hoMEworks course prior to closing on their home.

We also offer a discounted self-guided homebuyer education course through eHome America, America’s Premier Online Homebuyer Education, to help you determine if homeownership is right for you, how to shop for a home, and how to maintain a home once you’ve bought it.

Interested in financial counseling with us? Our counseling services are available in a one-on-one format, a group format, or can be done virtually or over the phone. We’ll go over your needs and concerns and help you create a plan that is specifically tailored to your situation.
