Town & Country Credit Union is Champion of Affordable Housing

BISMARCK, ND - North Dakota Housing Finance Agency honored several of its partners as Champions of Affordable Housing during its Statewide Housing Conference that was held this month.  Town and Country Credit Union (main office in Minot, ND) was recognized as one of three financial institution Champions based on market penetration and loan production, special programs used, portfolio performance and loan quality. 

“The Champion awards recognize and celebrate the work of individuals, non-profit organizations, public agencies, and private sector businesses that make exceptional affordable housing contributions in North Dakota,” said Jolene Kline, NDHFA executive director.

Mortgage loan officers, financial institutions and real estate agents promote NDHFA’s homeownership programs to first-time buyers, households that previously owned a home and needed assistance buying again, and special needs households including single parents, veterans, and households with disabled or elderly family members in the home. Awards are presented based on the volume of loans produced and participation in locally sponsored affordable housing activities.

NDHFA began recognizing its housing partners with Champion of Affordable Housing Awards in 1995. For more information on the awards or the agency’s program, contact NDHFA at (800) 292-8621 or www.ndhfa.org.

NDHFA is a self-supporting state agency dedicated to making housing affordable for all North Dakotans. The Industrial Commission of North Dakota, consisting of Governor Doug Burgum as chairman, Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring and Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem, oversees the agency.
