The current economy has brought Real Estate Owned (REO) properties to the forefront of our attention, with tens of thousands of foreclosed properties appearing in our communities. Community organizers and affordable housing practitioners are looking for ways to handle these properties, which are often left sitting vacant and vulnerable to vandals and the elements. When properties deteriorate, neighborhoods undergo stress and destabilization, and there's a lost opportunity to match properties with lower-income families. NeighborWorks Training Institute is pleased to offer courses focused on acquiring, managing and selling REO properties, as well as classes on stabilizing neighborhoods and helping prospective homeowners purchase foreclosed properties.
To learn more about stabilization courses being offered at the next NeighborWorks Training Institute, visit the main Training page, where you can also register online.
