Becoming a home owner was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I believe that without NHSSF, this would not have been possible. A little after two years of being a homeowner I received a call from NHSSF on Valentine’s Day informing me that I was selected for the Solar Panel Program. The best Valentine’s Day gift ever.

A big thank you to NHSSF for making my dream as a first time homebuyer possible. I would not trade my time to work with a different organization. Both Jamil and Takoma worked to such an extent that I have no doubt in their lending services. NHSSF is a pillar to all of south Florida. I would recommend NHSSF without hesitation.

Thanks to Neighborhood Housing Services I was able to secure a loan for the purchase of my new home. The folks at NHSSF were very friendly and helpful. They were professional and courteous and really knew what they were doing. I would recommend their lending services to anyone looking to buy a new home.
