Taking a first-time homebuyer class may seem like a commitment, but the benefits are substantial and can save you time, money, and stress in the long run.  The Scott County CDA provides a workshop that helps prepare interested first-time homebuyers for homeownership. This workshop covers topics such as:

  • Budgeting
  • Credit, such as factors that influence your credit score and how your score impacts your mortgage loan.
  • Mortgage loans and what to expect at closing.
  • Real estate overview, such as finding the right agent.
  • What to expect for your home inspection
  • Home maintenance

Knowledge is power. By the end of the class, you’ll feel more empowered and confident in your ability to make informed decisions throughout the homebuying process. Investing 8 hours in a first-time homebuyer class can set a solid foundation for one of the most significant purchases you’ll ever make. It can help you make informed decisions, avoid costly mistakes, and ultimately achieve your goal of homeownership with greater ease and confidence.  Participation is required to access downpayment grants and the Community Land Trust.
