Nearly eleven years ago, Dina Harris founded The Washtenaw HomeBuyers Program, in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The program was designed to help people like herself - those who wanted to buy a home but needed help getting it. The program ran successfully in Ann Arbor, but soon began to outgrow its small borders. In 2001, Dina took her successful model into the City of Detroit, and Wayne County, and Faith Community HomeBuyers was born. Since 2001, Faith Community has counseled in excess of 7,000 families, leading to more than 1,000 first time home purchases.
The non-profit 501(c)(3) agency offers; financial literacy, credit education, homeowner workshops, housing counseling, downpayment assistance, wealth building seminars, and a variety of other programs and services.
In an effort to make homeownership a national crusade, The Washtenaw HomeBuyers Program has become National Faith HomeBuyers. The mission of National Faith HomeBuyers is to assist anyone that desires homeownership. National Faith HomeBuyers encourage families to take ownership of their lives and adopt a financially responsible behavior. Families are encouraged to become independent of governmental assistance. National Faith HomeBuyers is MSHDA, Freddie Mac, and HUD certified.
At National Faith HomeBuyers we are improving neighborhoods, one house at a time.
