“Dear Sarah*, thank you so much for assisting me in my journey to purchase a home. We started this process back in June. At that time, my credit score was 640 and I had $600 in savings. You advised me on techniques to not only manage my credit but also boost it. As a result, my score went up to 718.  I also benefited greatly by your monthly check-ins which really kept me on track and motivated. I thank you so much for all that you have done for me. By August I had a significant savings of $1,600; which had increased to $6000 and had been approved for a home loan of $137,000. On October 17th I officially went under contract. I closed on December 5th and recently moved in!

Thank you so much as I am now a homeowner! Thank you to Operation HOPE for having a great coach like you to help me through the process.”
