ICO’s Homes for Families Program consists of two components: housing rehab and homebuyer education. Under the home rehab component, ICO acquires dilapidated, vacant homes in distressed areas of Harford County in an effort to revitalize the community. ICO substantially rehabilitates these homes in participation with the community and local government representatives.
Under home buyer education we educate prospective home buyers of the intimidating process of acquiring a home. We also enlighten the prospective homebuyers of the, often unfamiliar, responsibilities of owning a home.
Things to note.
