Housing fair aims to help buyers

The Collier County Housing Development Corp. will host a housing fair from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at the Golden Gate Community Center located at 4701 Golden Gate Parkway.

Realtors, mortgage companies, developers and builders will be on hand to provide prospective home buyers with information. County officials will also offer buyers information about the county’s affordable housing as­sistance programs, including down payment and closing cost assistance and loans for home re­pairs.

“We help people come in and tell them everything they need to know to buy a house,” said Kathy Patterson, director of the Collier County Housing Development Corp.

Patterson said more than 32 vendors have signed up to partic­ipate.

For more information, call 434-2397. To schedule an ap­pointment with a home buying counselor, call 353-4244.
