Making homeownership a reality
A mother of six and a grandmother of three is thankful to be a new homeowner with the help of a non-profit organization that helps residents in need of affordable housing.
Virginia Lynn’s journey to homeownership began in 2017 when she attended a home-buyer workshop at her apartment complex in Eden Park at Ironwood that was conducted by the Gainesville Neighborhood Housing and Development Corporation.
“I learned about budgeting and credit repair,” Lynn said. “It took more time than I anticipated to recover from a divorce, but I kept working on the things that I had learned in the workshop.”
