Testimonials
Cassandra Zell
"SPARC is allowing me the opportunity to purchase my first home; something I thought wouldn't be possible until interest rates dropped to fit my budget. It's an incredible, underrecognized program that's truly changing lives across Virginia. By offering below-market interest rates through participating lenders, SPARC expands access to affordable housing and strengthens our communities. It's not just assistance, it's a pathway to homeownership and stability".

"Help with a fraud, I had a situation with a man who pretended to be a lawyer who did not call me or send me messages. I lost $1,000 for trusting that person. It is very good that there is someone who helps you and gives you the support you need".
