Loan Modifications & Foreclosure Prevention
For Homeowners who have suffered a loss of income or significant life change, CIHD offers these loans to enable enrolled members to keep their homes for their families. Certain criteria and eligibility must be met to qualify.
Renovation Loans
Renovation Loans, up to $30,000.00, are available for enrolled members. These loans have a fixed rate of 4.75% and may be financed up to 15 years. Eligibility requirements exist and certain renovations are restricted.
Credit Counseling
Our Lending Officers welcome any interested enrolled member credit counseling to introduce them to financial literacy, improve credit scores, and preparation for homeownership. We also work with the schools and summer youth programs to teach fundamentals of budgeting and credit.
Portfolio Loans
CIHD offers in-house financing for enrolled members that have been declined by outside lenders. Applicants must have a minimum credit score of 550, attended credit counseling, and are employed. Additional eligibility requirements are required for approval.
Foster Parent Renovation Loans
CIHD is happy to offer enrolled members, who are fostering a child(ren) or have kinship placement, assistance to make their home livable for the child(ren). These loans are offered at 0% and may convert to a grant. Maximum amount for one child is $30,000.00, but you may be eligible for up to $50,000.00 if multiple children are placed within the home.
Down Payment Assistance
Tribal Housing Services can assist enrolled members with Down Payment Assistance (DPA) if approved by a bank. DPA is computed at 20% of the sales price, up to a maximum of $50,000.00, and repayment is deferred until the mortgage is satisfied.
