Attend Our HELP CDC Homebuyers Workshop!

Buying a home is one of the biggest investments you'll make in your life—make sure you're prepared! Our workshop isn't just for first-time homebuyers; it's designed for anyone planning to purchase a home.

Led by experienced real estate professionals, you'll gain insider knowledge about the homebuying process, empowering you to make informed decisions. Plus, you'll receive a certificate at the end of the workshop, a key step if you're planning to use Down Payment Assistance programs.

Topics Covered:

  • Are You REALLY Ready To Buy A Home?
  • Credit & Money Management
  • What Is Predatory Lending?
  • Down Payment Assistance Programs For Local Counties
  • Getting A Mortgage Loan
  • Shopping For A Home
  • What To Expect From A Home Inspection
  • Maintenance Involved With Caring For Your Investment
  • What’s Involved With Closing On A Home Loan
  • Fair Housing-What To Do If You Experience Housing Discrimination?
  • What Could Happen When You Miss Mortgage Payments?

This HUD-Approved workshop is your gateway to confident and successful homeownership. Space is limited—REGISTER TODAY and take the first step toward achieving your dream!

**PLEASE KEEP READING**

The certificate received at the end of the workshop is NOT AN APPROVAL for down payment or closing cost assistance programs. It is a REQUIREMENT for down payment assistance programs. Please consult your lender for more information regarding your local programs. The course certificate is valid for one year.

PLEASE ARRIVE ON TIME. DOORS OPEN AT 8:30 A.M. to allow time for SIGN-IN & morning refreshments. DOORS CLOSE AT 9:00 SHARP and late arrivals will not be allowed in.
