Housing Resources in San Francisco Bay Area/ Penisula - San Mateo County
Later this afternoon while I was browsing the Internet, I found a website that offers tons of information about different housing resources in the San Francisco Bay Area for tenant, homeless and low-income families, including information for families buying their first homes. Every one of us has something in common, that is the need for shelter. We cannot ignore this need and it is persistently on our minds. Below is a list of organizations that offer information for tenant, homeless and low-income families interested in buying their first home.
