Free Home Buyer Seminar: Breanne – Oak Park Public Library, Main Branch, Oak Park 2/7/2024, 6:00pm

February 7, 2024 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Free

Are you thinking of buying your first home?

Each Free First Time Home Buyer seminar is taught by a mortgage professional and one of our real estate brokers. These are NOT sales presentations, they are true seminars. We guarantee the authenticity of the class. 

Some of the topics covered:

  • Roles of the Lender/Mortgage Broker 
  • Your Credit 
  • Pre-Approval 
  • Roles of the Real Estate Agent 
  • Searching for Properties 
  • Contracts 
  • Negotiation 
  • Closing

Some of the questions asked by potential buyers at a recent seminar:

  • How much can I afford? 
  • Can I get a loan to cover rehab costs? 
  • When should we talk to a lender? 
  • What are lender fees? What’s the norm? 
  • What are points? 
  • Is the down payment different from closing costs? 
  • Why do people get into ARM’s vs. Fixed loans (good question especially right now)? 
  • What can I do to get my credit score higher? 
  • Can we still get a home if one of us has great credit and the other has not so great credit? 
  • Where do I start in the negotiation process? 
  • Does earnest money show the seller how serious the buyer is?

We hope to see you there!
