Brief: SWMHP to host phone seminar

SLAYTON — The Southwest Minnesota Housing Partnership (SWMHP) and Minnesota Home Ownership Center are providing an innovative way to reach people on the verge of foreclosure.

The third in a series of telephone seminars for people worried about foreclosure will take place Tuesday. The seminar allows many people to phone in and participate anonymously from the privacy of their home, work or car. The seminar format is similar to a radio call-in show, including informational segments and questions from callers.

The seminar provides people with information and the opportunity to ask questions in a comfortable and confidential setting. They provide a passive access point to information for homeowners who are just beginning to ask questions about their situation and those who are not yet ready to acknowledge their personal circumstances to a lender or mortgage support specialist.

The telephone seminar will take from 7-8 p.m. The call-in number is 1-888-886-6603.
