First Time Home Buyers*
with Kimberlee Petrey
Buying your first house is truly a big deal! In this 8-hour, in person class we will cover everything you need to know about the buying process and owning a home afterwards. You will learn the steps involved in buying, how to set goals, and prepare for homeownership, explore loan products and credit, protect and grow your investment, and how to avoid being ripped off. A Homebuyers Education Certificate can help you access down payment assistance or mortgage products that require HUD-certified homebuyers education—for most organizations it’s good for two years. Register here at midmaine.maineadulted.org and the computer program will take you to the KVCAP registration site to finish the registration process—that cost will be $30. Limit 24 students. Please register with KVCAP Housing Services Program/Kimberlee Petrey
