Don't Move, Improve!

Repair and rehabilitate your home with our low-cost financing and project management support

Whether you need to make minor repairs or major updates to your property, our team can help. We offer lower cost loans than if you worked with a traditional lender because we are a Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI). Our team of HUD-certified housing counselors will assess your budget and review your options for grant programs and affordable lending services. The construction project management team at NHS will oversee your work to completion while ensuring the budget and schedule stay on track.
