Preparation and publication of these Directories would not have been possible without the generous support of a grant through the State Council on Developmental Disabilities. We wish to specifically recognize the generous support of the staff of the State Council on Developmental Disabilities. Their assistance and support of Home Ownership Made Easy truly supports our mission to maximize the independent living environment for disabled families and individuals.

These directories identify government and not-for-profit agencies throughout California that have programs and funds available to assist prospective homebuyers. The information is of benefit for those who are or work with the disabled and low to moderate-income first time homebuyers. It has been gathered from Federal, State, County and local municipalities and non-profit agencies that offer services and resources to the disabled and low to moderate-income individuals and families. It has primarily been gathered through the Internet and has been verified by letter or contact as possible.

Down Payment programs - These agencies provide programs and funds to assist with down payments for prospective homebuyers.

Housing Counseling Programs - These agencies help prospective homebuyers to become eligible for loans and mortgages.

Agency listings are grouped by county. Find and click on your county on the California map. Sort the resulting list by organization, county, city or service area by clicking on the column heading. Click on the agency name for detailed information. Some counties may not have an agency listed. In that case, return to the map and try its neighbors. There are several agencies who serve more than one area.

The information is as up-to-date as we can make it from our research. However as with all directories of this type both the programs offered and the organizations change quickly and may have altered between the time that we collected it and possible use. If there are errors or omissions in the information contained here it is no way attributable to our generous grantor agencies. Therefore, we strongly advise you to be sure to contact the agency before making detailed plans to determine its service area and appropriateness to your situation.

We welcome any updates to the information that you may find in using these resources. If you have changes and corrections please e-mail them to us at info@homechoices.org
