Why Homebuyer Education Matters
Buying a home is one of the biggest financial decisions most people will ever make. Homebuyer education helps ensure you’re prepared for it. These classes provide essential information about budgeting, credit, mortgages, the homebuying process, and your responsibilities as a homeowner.
For many down payment assistance programs, completing a certified education course is not only helpful, but it’s required. By taking the time to get educated, you’ll feel more confident in your decisions, avoid common pitfalls, and set yourself up for long-term success as a homeowner.
