If you are struggling to make your mortgage payments, it can be a scary and stressful time. You are not alone. Thousands of Illinois homeowners have successfully kept their home through the Illinois Hardest Hit program. Here is the account of a homeowner who recently saved her home.

My name is Jennifer. I have to admit that facing foreclosure on my very first home was scary, it was a very depressing time for me. All I remember was feeling so helpless. When the foreclosure began I had just had intestinal surgery and no source income as I was still fighting disability.  I was at my lowest point and I had no clue on how to dig myself out. After finding the Spanish Coalition for Housing through a search online, I called them and learned about the Illinois Hardest Hit program.  Calling them was the best decision I could have ever made.

The whole process from beginning to end was fast and uncomplicated. The staff from both facilities have been the most professional and helpful group of people with whom I have ever worked. 

I was brought up with good manners and morals. I was taught at a very young age to give thanks and praise when it’s due and that’s what I’m doing right now.  I can attest to the fact that the Illinois Hardest Hit program saved me from facing a future of uncertainty and I am eternally grateful.  I would like to specifically thank Tabitha Rodriguez from the Spanish Coalition for Housing and the Illinois Housing Development Authority who helped me during my most difficult time. 

We would like to thank Jennifer for her kind words and sharing her experience.  If you need assistance, we hope her words inspire you to take action.  If you need help paying your mortgage, please visit IllinoisHardestHit.org to see if you qualify for up to $35,000 in federal assistance at no cost to you.
