About this event

Sold on Saturdays: Homebuying 101

Saturday, November 14

| 10 a.m.

3224 Shackleford Pass, Little Rock, AR 72205

In person or by Zoom

Homebuying 101 is a one-morning class covering what you need to know before you buy a house. In Affordable Housing brings in a team of industry professionals — lenders, Realtors, insurance agents, home inspectors and others — to walk through the process and answer your questions directly.

What the class covers

• Credit — what lenders review, how to build a score, and how to maintain it

• Down payment assistance — what programs exist and how to find out if you qualify

• Working with a Realtor — what your agent does for you and what to expect

• Homeowner's insurance — how to compare rates rather than accept the first quote

• Home inspections — why you need an inspector and what they identify

• Budgeting — what you can afford, including costs beyond the mortgage payment

• After the sale — maintaining the home once it's yours

• AND MORE

Bring your questions. Time is set aside for discussion, and attendees are encouraged to share their own experience.
