Homeownership Workshops
Employers Empowering Homeownership® - EEH®
Through our energetic initiative,
Employers Empowering Homeownership®, NFH is carrying out its non-profit
mission by reaching out to workforce families throughout the Northbay
area....offering information and direct assistance to help them achieve
the substantial benefits of homeownership closer to their workplace.
EEH® Homeownership Workshops Sponsored by Northbay Employers
NFH reaches workforce families is through alliances with employers in
the Northbay region of San Francisco. These employers sponsor EEH®
Homeownership workshops and offer this complimentary service from NFH
as an additional benefit for their employees. The EEH® Program builds
and strengthens the relationship between employer and employee and
provides tangible, practical benefits for each.
What is the goal of an EEH® Homeownership Workshop presented by NFH?
The basic purpose and goal of our EEH® Workshops is to demonstrate to
workforce families that homeownership is possible. By providing basic
information, presenting loan payment examples and explaining the home
buying process, we can help overcome the fears, myths and
misinformation that all too often keep workforce families from
realizing the benefits of homeownership.
What is discussed in your EEH® Seminars?
EEH® Workshops are designed to provide basic information and address
common questions and concerns we hear from first-time buyers. Our
seminars are presented in an informal, friendly atmosphere that
encourages employee participation. Topics covered include:
- Common myths about homeownership
- Benefits of Homeownership
- Examples of downpayment and monthly housing costs
- What loan programs are available?
- How do Affordable Programs work?
- How much money will I need for downpayment and closing?
- How does the tax write-off help me?
- How does a lender determine whether I qualify?
- How can budgeting help?
- How can NFH help me with the process?

What are the benefits to Employers?
Through sponsorship of our EEH® Workshops and the substantial value
they offer, employers build employee relationships and stabilize their
workforce. Employees enjoying the benefits of homeownership closer to
work spend fewer hours commuting and have more time for family and
personal activities...which can translate to increased punctuality and
productivity for the employer.
What are the benefits to Employees?
The benefits of homeownership to employees, discussed at length in our
Workshops, include: a) personal pride of ownership/"a place of your
own", b) investment/growth opportunity, and c) income and property tax
benefits.
Who can Sponsor a Homeownership Workshop?
We invite any employer in the Northbay region of San Francisco to
contact us. We would be pleased to present our EEH® Workshop to your
employees. If you are an employee and feel your company could benefit
from our Workshops, we suggest you contact your Human Resources office
and direct them to us for discussions.
