Community Education Adult & Family Classes / Special Interest -
Community Education - Spring Summer 2024

Whether you're thinking about buying your first home or your third home, now's the time to create a plan for one of your biggest investments and what it means for your future. 

Home Buying 101 features three experts to help you understand the steps involved in purchasing a home. Jill will touch on understanding home values, timing of your purchase, market statistics and why it is important to have a realtor representing you during the transaction from start to finish. 

Most importantly a lender will explain the pre-approval process and the various mortgage finance options and why credit scores are crucial in the pre-qualification process. They will also share what you will need to apply for a loan and why timing is so important to help you find your dream home. 

Finally, a licensed Home Inspector will share why it is important to have a home inspection and Radon testing. Matt Rappel will share what he looks at during the home inspection and will discuss the importance of having a radon test conducted in the home you are wanting to buy.

McNamee Real Estate Team/Keller Williams Realty does not charge a fee for this class. The fee for this class supports Community Education's operations.
