Foreclosure Prevention

Somerville Community Corporation is proud to partner with Cambridge Neighborhood Apartment Housing Services (CNAHS), a Cambridge-based organization which helps struggling homeowners navigate the painstaking process of obtaining mortgage modifications. Through this partnership, SCC staff provides financial education counseling to CNAHS’s Somerville customers. CNAHS, in turn, will continue to offer foreclosure prevention counseling and loan modification assistance to Somerville homeowners at risk of foreclosure.
