HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES OF WARSAW INDIANA INC

Description

Housing Opportunities of Warsaw is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of low-income homeowners in Kosciusko County. We provide a mix of repair and educational programs that both assist homeowners with necessary home repairs and teach them to treat their homes as assets.

Our owner-occupied rehab programs come in to play when financial back breakers occur - a homeowner’s furnace goes out, their roof leaks, their sewage line bursts; the list is extensive. For low-income homeowners, these expenses often seem impossible to handle - even the emergencies. These OOR programs apply both to conventional homes and mobile homes, working with homeowners to arrange for repairs that are repayable in a way that fits their budget.

Our educational courses include Lifecycles of Homeownership - which teaches all kinds of homeowner tips such as how to lower your property taxes, how to prioritize handling debts, and how to network to maintain a home on limited income - and Home Energy Impact, which teaches homeowners how to make their homes energy efficient and provides materials to do so.
