What You’ll Learn

During this HUD-approved Homebuyer Education Session, you’ll learn about:

  • Preparing your finances for homeownership
  • Understanding and improving your credit score
  • Creating a realistic homebuying budget
  • Mortgage options and working with lenders
  • Down payment assistance programs
  • Shopping for a home
  • What to expect during closing and beyond

Many mortgage programs and down payment assistance opportunities require completion of a homebuyer education course. By attending both sessions, you’ll earn your Homebuyer Education Certificate, an important step toward qualifying for many first-time homebuyer programs.
