WHRC ne xizmetkarê deyndar an deyndar e. Em ne deyn didin û ne jî alîkariya darayî didin xerîdaran. Lêbelê, em dikarin alîkariya kirrûbirên xanî û xwedanxanî bikin ku gava ku ew bi bernameyên arîkariya darayî re têkildar bin.
Dîroka Me
WHRC wekî ku hate damezrandin Community Home Ownership Center (CHOC) in 1995 by members of the Seattle Mortgage Bankers Association, the Washington State Housing Finance Commission (WSHFC), and non-profit housing agencies, all of whom shared the goal of connecting the community to resources necessary to break down the barriers to successful homeownership.
CHOC served as a Puget Sound-area clearinghouse of resources available to first-time homebuyers and homeowners, particularly those with low-to-moderate incomes.
In 1999, CHOC expanded its service area to the entire state of Washington and launched a statewide toll-free hotline. The Community Home Ownership Center changed its name to the Washington Homeownership Resource Center (WHRC) in 2008.
Bi destpêkirina krîza morgicê ya 2008 -an re, bangên li xeta gerdûnî ya WHRC ji xerîdarên ku li agahdariya kirîna xanî digerin agahdariya li ser pêşîlêgirtina desteserkirinê digerînin.
Di bersivê de, WHRC şêwirmendiya pêşîlêgirtinê û arîkariya dadrêsî li karûbarên piştevaniya xwedan xanî ya ku bi xeta wêya germ ve têne peyda kirin zêde kir. Di sala 2011-an de, WHRC hate hilbijartin ku li seranserê welêt, xeta pêşîlêgirtinê ya bêpevçûn a ku di Qanûna Edaletê ya Darazê de hatî destnîşan kirin tevbigere, di portfoliya karûbarê me de rola pêşîlêgirtina desteserkirinê zexm bike.
Li seranserê saxbûna piştî paşkeftinê, WHRC berdewam dike ku hewcedariyên derketî yên xwedan xaniyên Washington xizmet bike. Pêşîlêgirtina windabûna xanî ya ku bi vegirtina deynê bacê ve girêdayî ye ji WHRC re bûye sêyemîn referansa girîng. Hevkariyên meyên hewalgirî yên bihêz ên bi Xezînedar û Nirxînerên Wîlayetê û ajansên arîkariya dadrêsî piştgiriyê didin xwedan xaniyan ku ji bo bicihanîna berpirsiyariyên baca xanî têkoşîn dikin. Ji ber ku ev xwedan xanî bi piranî xwedan xaniyên pîr in, me bi navendên pîr û AARP re hevkariyek xurt çêkir da ku mezinan bi bernameyên arîkariya bacê ve girêbidin û ji bo mezinan ji bo arîkariya baca berfirehkirî parêzvaniyê bikin.

I wanted to email you, and thank you for the excellent service I received from Susanna Martini. Throughout our talk, she was professional and warm. Also, she took extra time to make me feel comfortable. I truly appreciated her sense of humor as she helped route me to someone that could answer my questions. In a world that seems to have forgotten how to hold a conversation without emojies and acronyms, Susanna is a real asset to your company and deserves praise and a raise!WHRC Hotline Caller, Benton, WA
I called and spoke to one of your employees, Susanna Martini. I was inquiring on some homeownership advice and felt very lost and confused about exactly what I needed to ask for and embarrassed because I did not know how to explain what I needed. When I spoke with Susanna, she was so friendly and made me feel very comfortable discussing my situation. Susanna was very understanding and was very positive when I was unsure of questions I was asked. Susanna made me smile throughout our conversation and I felt better about my situation after speaking with her. Susanna is an awesome employee and I appreciate the kindness and concern she showed me.

I wanted to reach out because I had what I believed to be an unsolvable situation with a property of mine that is scheduled to be foreclosed on. I panic, called your number and was connected to Susanna. Not only did she listen patiently to my panic'd nonsense, but she went above and beyond to ensure I was connected to a counselor due to the urgency of my circumstances. Through this call, I was able to reach a solution and avoid foreclosure. I am beyond thankful for Susanna and organizations like yours that provide trustworthy solutions for people in this predicament. WHRC Hotline Caller, King County
