Prepare for homeownership, taught by financial coaches, not realtors.
Why attend this course? As financial coaches our only goal is to educate you on how to successfully prepare for first time home ownership. We have no desire to sell you real estate or influence your thinking about real estate. We just want to teach you the steps you need to take to be properly prepared to buy a home.
The world of home buying can be an overwhelming thing to navigate, but not when you're armed with trusted information from experienced professionals. Whether you are just starting your financial journey or you've been working for years there are essential pieces of information you need to know about before entering the world of home ownership.
Join us to learn more about how to prepare for home ownership with several sessions including:
