Dee's story: "Dee worked hard to get her own home and she worked hard to keep it in good shape. But an older home with older home problems needed extensive work and Dee needed a loan to pay for it all. Dee came to NWGF to see if we could help keep her in her home. She completed her paperwork with the loan counselor and sat down with our rehab specialist to determine what work needed to be done and what she could afford. A few weeks later, Dee received word that her loan had been approved by the NWGF loan committee. She was elated. Working with the rehab specialist, she sent bids out to reliable contractors, selected one she liked and started her remodeling. Today, Dee and her children are delighted with their (almost) new home. “My house is more comfortable and safer,” says Dee, “I love it. Thanks, NWGF.”"

If you own your home, you may qualify for an NWGF loan to help you fix your house. An NWGF“rehab” specialist is available without charge to help you decide on repairs, choose a contractor and make sure the job is done right. NWGF rehab loans require monthly payments for interest and principal repayment. If you have equity in your home, check with the City of Great Falls for a deferred loan.
