Seek steps early on to avoid losing your home
By Jesef Williams

Help is just a phone call or mouse click away for those looking to avoid home foreclosure.

Wilson Consulting Associates is offering free counseling and consultation to residents who fear
they may lose their homes.

The group is providing the services through its partnership with Family Services Inc., which last
year received federal grant money to assist homeowners.

Jeff Wilson is the senior project manager for Wilson Consulting Associates, which serves
residents in Lancaster, York, Chester and Mecklenburg counties on behalf on Family Services.

In South Carolina, Family Services has 1,500 files on hand, Wilson said.

“We must do all we can to ensure home ownership is not built on quicksand,” Wilson said. “The
earlier financially distressed home owners reach out for assistance, the more options they have
to address their mortgage issues and potentially avoid foreclosure.”

In Lancaster County, there were 16 foreclosure filings in November and 11 in December, Wilson
said.

There are more than 230 foreclosed properties in the county, he said.

To get the word out, Wilson is hosting free mortgage default and foreclosure counseling
sessions every first and third Tuesday of each month.

The sessions are from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Lancaster County Library.

“I don’t think the turnout has been as good as it should be,” Wilson said about the number of
inquiries regarding Family Services. “Enough people don’t know about it.”

Carolina First and South Carolina Community Bank Receive BEA Awards
Columbia, South Carolina – Two Wilson Consulting Associates clients, Carolina First and South
Carolina Community Bank, received Bank Enterprise Awards (BEA) by the U.S. Treasury.  The BEA
Program was created in 1994 to support FDIC-insured financial institutions around the country
that are dedicated to financing and supporting community and economic development activities.
The BEA Program complements the community development activities of insured depository
institutions (i.e., banks and thrifts) by providing financial incentives to expand investments in
CDFIs and to increase lending, investment, and service activities within economically distressed
communities. Providing monetary awards for increasing community development activities
leverages the Funds dollars and puts more capital to work in distressed communities
throughout the nation.

The BEA Program provides formula-based grants to Applicants for increasing qualified activities
from a Baseline Period to an Assessment Period. Awards are based on activities within three
categories: CDFI Related Activities, Distressed Community Financing Activities, and Service
Activities.


As of July 31, 2008, Wilson Consulting Associates has secured and facilitated over $216 million in
grant funding and New Markets Tax Credits!
