The yearly event will be at the Georgia International Convention Center, 2000 Convention Center Concourse in College Park from 1 to 8 p.m. Friday, June 1, and from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, June 2.
Lenders and the nonprofits hope to find alternatives to foreclosures for struggling homeowners. It will be a first-come, first-served event, and homeowners should bring mortgage documents, income documents and hardship letters. A full list can be found at www.MakingHomeAffordable.gov. The event is sponsored by HOPE NOW, a consortium of lenders, servicers and nonprofits, and the federal Making Home Affordable program.
