Homeownership Workshops

Homeownership has been proven to create stronger families and benefit communities by creating stability, integrity and economic growth. Today’s housing market has changed drastically due to the lending practices of several financial institutions. For this reason it is imperative that today’s potential homebuyer have the proper education regarding the entire process of purchasing a home. For many modest-income families, navigating through the homeownership process can be complex, frustrating, and intimidating. Many are unsure how to begin to buy a house, and they often face barriers that prevent them from living the American dream. This workshop will educate potential homeowners on the entire process of purchasing a home – who will you work with, pre-qualification, pre-approval, finding a home, making an offer, types of mortgages, time to apply, and the closing process.
