Neighborhood Housing Services is a leader in providing housing counseling and education to home buyers.

Online and in person classes

We can help you answer the questions most first-time home buyers have such as:

  • What does my credit score need to be in order to qualify for a home loan?
  • What is the best way to shop for a home loan?
  • What should my mortgage payment be in relation to my monthly salary?
  • Are there hidden costs to homeownership that I should know about?

Affordable Housing Opportunities

  • HOME OWNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
    NHSB works in partnership with local banks, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Alabama Land Bank Authority to rehab homes in low-income neighborhoods and sell them to qualified home buyers who have completed our budget management/credit counseling and home buyer workshops.
  • RENTAL OPPORTUNITIES
    NHSB offers affordable rental housing for families who make too much money to qualify for subsidized housing but cannot afford to pay rent at current market rates.
