February Virtual First Time Homebuyer Workshop
Remote via Zoom or Phone,
Buying your first home is not easy, especially with rising housing costs and interest rates. The good news is that homebuyer education will help you find resources and tools to achieve your housing and financial goals. Purchasing a home is one of the most important financial decisions you will make. CDP’s homebuyer education includes FTHB (First Time Home Buyer) workshops and Individual Counseling. We are here to help you get started and get closer to your goals of financial freedom and one day owning a home. Participating in our FTHB workshops can help take some of the mystery and stress out of the home buying process, as well as potentially save you time and money. Our workshops provide information on budgeting, looking for, selecting, and purchasing a home, and local resources that may be available to buyers. The program is offered virtually beginning in October 2025 to May 2026. Each virtual workshop is four classes with each class running from 5:30 pm – 8:00 pm for a total of 8 hours. The course covers: credit health and budgeting; mortgage process and options; finding the right home and making an offer; appraisals; home inspection; legal procedures and protections; insurance protection; home energy audits and savings and ongoing homeownership. Participants must complete all course requirements listed below to receive an electronic Certificate of Completion. Certificates are active for two years. The course is open to any interested individual or household (2 people).
