Free information and assistance for Home Improvement Loans, Repairs, Purchase & More

A number of absolutely free services are available to help Brooklyn Park residents repair or improve their home, secure an affordable home improvement loan, buy their first home, prevent foreclosure and more.
The
Housing Resource Center™ (HRC) will help you navigate the sometimes complex mine field of home repair. What’s a lien waiver and how does it protect you?* How can you find qualified contractors? Do you have to pull a
permit to build your deck? Why is a scope of work important in a home repair or project? And what exactly is a scope of work, anyway? Contact HRC at 612-588-3033 or
www.housingresourcecenter.org.
CEE Financial Resources offers home improvement and energy loans for owner occupants and rental owners. Loans offer below market interest rates and are available for all types of homes with special rates for those built prior to 1970, typically Cape Cod and Rambler style homes.

* A lien waiver places legal responsibility on the contractor to cover costs related to your project. That way, you don’t get sued if the contractor fails to pay his or her suppliers and sub-contractors.
