Our first-time homebuyer education classes seek to prepare and assist homebuyers in becoming savvy homeowners. In our class, future homebuyers will learn how to set goals and action plans to overcome common barriers to homeownership, some of which include credit, savings plans, and avoiding predatory lending. You will be assigned a personal counselor with whom you will meet one-on-one to help you create and follow an action plan to meet your financial goals.
Upon graduating from these classes, you will have gained the knowledge and skills to either purchase or begin saving up for the purchase of a new home. Keep scrolling to register for one of our in-person homebuyer classes!
