Homeownership Becomes a Reality
NMCAA has a great partnership network in Northern Michigan, and we are proud to work with others to help bring opportunity to our local community members.
Travis and Julia Morales were able to work with NMCAA as well as Community Hope, out of Missaukee County, to secure a home that was right for their family. The Morales Family were participants in NMCAA’s Individual Development Account (IDA) program, in which qualified households can save up to a $1,000 to be matched 3:1 toward the purchase of a home (or 2:1 for a small business or education). They attended Money Management and Homebuyer Education workshops as well as individual coaching sessions.
It took a dedicated team of community members, as well as a committed family to turn this dream of homeownership into reality.
