"Everyone's dream is to be able to purchase a home.  The Action Plan is

where I personally gained a better understanding of where I stood before

even thinking about buying a home.  Your trust was quickly earned

because I could tell that you were truly trying to help me."





At OCCHC, the Lara family worked to achieve their dream of stepping up to homeownership.  OCCHC provided one-on-one counseling and educational workshops focused on credit, financing and opportunities that led to $25,000 in closing costs in purchasing their very first home.

"With the Action Plan in place, I knew now that the first place to start with was with my credit and working with my debt to income ratio.  It also helped me understand the home buying process better."
