Debt Management Credit Counseling Corp. (dmcconline.org), a nonprofit charitable organization (DMCC), announced today they attended the Making Home Affordable event that took place in Miami, FL just over a week ago on February 22, 2012. Thousands of homeowners who are struggling to pay their mortgage were able to meet with their mortgage company and also speak to a HUD approved housing counseling agencies to go over their options. DMCC was able to take part in this event by providing volunteers and housing counselors.

DMCC currently offers a foreclosure prevention program free to consumers suffering from financial hardship and having a difficult time making their mortgage payments. DMCC counselors have been able to identify available solutions for borrowers to avoid foreclosure and assist homeowners with obtaining loan modifications if that is the recommended solution. If you are a homeowner who is facing foreclosure it is imperative to receive the right information and make an educated decision. This is why we assess each individuals personal situation and goals, said Jeremy Montanti, housing counselor and quality manager for DMCC. We are happy to participate in this event and provide valuable counseling to so many homeowners here today.

Approximately 100,000 homeowners across the state of Florida have benefited from the Making Home Affordable Program.
