19th Month Review
- Labourer at local Council.
Coach - Linda
Consultant - Rob
This client's story is outstanding. When he first came onto the program some 19 months ago he had a balance on his home loan of $45,679.92 and now it is $0. Prior to coming onto the MMP he decreased his loan by an average of $169.15/month and his major goal was to be able to get a new hot water service. I think that the note that we received from our client after his first year of coaching says it all:
"To all of you good people in the Home Ownership Company. Thank you for inviting me into your helping care. For reminding me of a good way to relate to my responsibilities. To be responsible for things is good for your health especially for your mental health and handle life in a more peaceful and clearer way."
This client did not even have a car and had to catch lifts to every coaching meeting - how is that for commitment! This year he has stated that the program is great; he never would have done this if we hadn't contacted him, and he is so pleased he came onto the program with us. He has completely changed his lifestyle for the better.
