Williamsburg – The United Jewish Organizations of Williamsburg (UJO), as part of its continuing effort to aid homeowners affected by the current economy, will hold a free Foreclosure Prevention & Managing Credit Seminar with New York Legal Assistance Group (NYLAG) on Tuesday, October 19 at 7:00 pm.  The event will be at 646 Myrtle Ave. (at Franklin).

The UJO and NYLAG will make presentations on reducing debt and preventing foreclosure.  Following the presentations, the UJO’s foreclosure prevention counselors will be available to meet with clients.

The UJO’s counselors can assist people whose mortgages have become unaffordable due to job loss, reduction in income, or other reasons.

The service is free of charge, and you do not need to be behind on your mortgage to receive help.

The UJO’s counselors analyze clients’ financial situations, determine the best courses of action regarding their mortgages, and work with lenders and servicers to obtain modifications or refinancing.

The UJO’s counselors are always available weekdays at 32 Penn Street (between Kent and Wythe) for further assistance.  Assistance is also available after 5:00 pm on Tuesdays by appointment.

Call 718-643-9700 ext. 241 or 243 for more information or to make an appointment.
