This educational day of need-to-know information will cover a variety of topics that are critical to first-time homebuyers, including:

• What are the financial reasons to buy a home?
• How much mortgage can I afford? Will I qualify?
• What role does a realtor play? A lender? An inspector?

In addition to these subject areas, guests will also gain insights on a number of available municipal, county, state, and lender-based financial assistance programs that are available to first-time buyers. No matter your level of real estate savvy, any prospective buyer will walk away from this workshop feeling even better equipped to find your forever home.

First time homebuyers courses are a tremendous investment for anyone considering buying a home in the near future.

Upon completion of the course, you will have unlocked a world of resources that will continue to benefit you and your family for years to come.
