Free Virtual Workshop: How Much Money Do You Need to Buy a Home?
October 21, 2025 by Leave a Comment
Buying a home takes more than just a down payment — but how much do you really need? In this quick and informative session, you’ll learn exactly what goes into your total “cash to close,” including down payment options, closing costs, and other upfront expenses.
You’ll walk away with a clear understanding of:
✅ How much money you actually need to buy a home
✅ Low down payment loan options (you don’t always need 20%)
✅ What closing costs and prepaids cover
✅ Tips and strategies for saving for your down payment
✅ How gift funds or wedding gifts can help
Whether you’re planning to buy soon or just starting to save, this class will help you create a realistic plan to reach your homeownership goals.

Not all Home Buyer Classes are the same
April 4, 2015 by Leave a Comment
Home Buyer Classes or Seminars are popping up every where. They are often taught by a Mortgage Originator paired with a Real Estate Agent, both with hopes they will earn a chance to help students with the purchase of their home. Sometimes home inspectors or escrow officers may take part in teaching as well. Class content can vary as well as the length of the class. Some classes will even help students become eligible for down payment assistance programs and/or tax credits (MCC).
How do you know which home buyer class is the right one for you?
