Housing Counseling

HUD Certified Housing Counseling

Central Virginia Housing offers counseling and workshops designed to promote and safeguard homeownership in underserved communities.

Our programs educate and empower individuals and families seeking to expand their housing options. Our counselor is certified by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and provides information and access to affordable housing in the counties that we serve in Planning District 16 (Fredericksburg, Stafford, Spotsylvania, King George, Caroline) and in Westmoreland.

Unfortunately due to funding changes, HUD Certified Housing Counseling is limited to classes.
