NeighborWorks® Home Ownership Center

The NeighborWorks® HomeOwnership Center (HOC) was established by CEDC to assist the greater Ventura community in purchasing and retaining homes.

Launched on a smaller scale in 1998, the HomeOwnership Center (HOC) extended its services countywide in September 2001 when it joined the NeighborWorks® network run by Neighborhood Reinvestment Corporation, now known as NeighborWorks® America, a national intermediary serving community development corporations. 

In June 2001, the Ventura County Community Development Corporation (VCCDC), a non-profit lending affiliate of CEDC (which operates as part of the NeighborWorks HomeOwnership Center) was incorporated with the mission, “to undertake community development activities that will revitalize neighborhoods by stimulating investments.”  VCCDC was created to address the growing affordability gap facing very-low, low, and moderate-income families living in Ventura County looking to purchase a home.  To address this need, VCCDC lends amortized and deferred subordinate loans to families through capital raised from financial institutions, intermediaries, foundations, municipalities, and state and federal government.

Our NeighborWorks HomeOwnership Center is located at:
