PUEBLO, Colo. (KOAA) — Being a homeowner can be challenging, but a group in Pueblo wants to help with that. NeighborWorks Southern Colorado hosted an open house Friday night.
The group wanted to show people the resources available to help with their housing concerns. This includes the following:
- helping with down payments on homes
- home repairs
- helping homeowners facing foreclosure
"We want to meet the needs of our community, so by looking at what the needs are we can help and, right now, foreclosure mitigation is key," said Sandra Gutierrez, CEO of Neighborworks Southern Colorado .
