NACA IS REAL!!!
As a woman of color, finding a program like NACA honestly felt too good to be true at first. The idea of an achievable path to homeownership with no down payment and no closing costs seemed too good to be true, especially living in such an expensive area. But, going through the process so far has made it feel a lot more possible and less intimidating. One thing I’ve really appreciated is how patient my counselor has been. They’ve taken the time to answer all of my questions, never made me feel rushed, and clearly know a lot about the different options available to me. Buying a home can feel overwhelming, but having someone explain things in a way that actually makes sense has helped a lot. I also like that the portal is easy to follow and organized in a way that doesn’t feel confusing. The videos have been especially helpful because they break up a lot of information into smaller, digestible sections instead of throwing everything at you all at once. Overall, the process has felt supportive and educational, and it’s made homeownership feel more realistic for me.
