Are you interested in becoming a homeowner but don’t know where to begin? The Virginia Housing Development Authority and local nonprofits are offering free homeownership education classes throughout December 2012 in the Northern Virginia area. Homeownership education classes cover topics including credit issues, personal finances, home inspections, and the role of lenders and real estate agents. In addition to helping home buyers understand the home buying process, the completion of a homeownership education class is now required of all borrowers before applying for a VHDA home loan. Attend one of the many free sessions below to learn about the advantages of homeownership.
