Mortgage Funding Help For Homeowners

Behind On Mortgage? Unemployed? Here's Help
LABELLE, FL. -- The federal government has allocated funding to help pay the mortgages of qualified homeowners who are unemployed or underemployed through no fault of their own. The Florida Hardest Hit (HHF) program aims to assist qualified Florida homeowners by providing mortgage assistance for up to 12 months (capped at $24,000), or until the homeowner finds adequate employment to resume paying the mortgage (whichever comes first) with up to $18,000 available to reinstate a delinquent first mortgage prior to payments being made. 

Additionally, for a homeowner who is recovering from unemployment/underemployment, up to $25,000 is available as a one-time payment to reinstate a delinquent first mortgage.

HHF assistance is paid directly to the loan servicer/lender for those homeowners deemed eligible to participate in the program. 

Okeechobee Non-Profit Housing Inc. is an approved agency and helps residents in the Lake Okeechobee region including Hendry county.

    This is another scam to get the banks stolen money. The banks played with the mortgages in a massive ponzi scheme and now do not own your note. They have been falsifying assignments of mortgages and the gov. is helping them get away with it....go ahead ask your "lender" to send you all the proof that they actually aquired your mortgage then VERIFY.

    The paper (the notes) are said to have been destroyed during the bailout to avoid the banks from collecting a debt twice.
