CHFA - Customer call center (860) 571-3500 or toll free at (877) 571-CHFA (2432)
A CHFA EMAP loan can provide assistance to homeowners who have fallen behind on their mortgage payments and have received a notice of foreclosure from their lender. Eligible homeowners are required to pay a portion of their monthly mortgage payment to CHFA while receiving the emergency assistance. The initial loan disbursement will be paid to the homeowners’ mortgage lender to bring the mortgage to a current status. The loans are available for up to five years, depending on need. The homeowner does not repay the loan until he or she is financially stable.
The federal government has established a website to help homeowners determine if they are eligible to modify or refinance their loan.
