About this Event

Stop the Bleeding: From Renting to Owning — NYC First-Time Homebuyer Event (FREE)

Every month you rent in New York City, you're building someone else's equity. If you've ever wondered whether buying might actually make sense for you — this event is designed to give you clear, honest answers.

This free, no-pressure workshop is for anyone who has thought about buying but doesn't know where to start — or isn't sure it's even possible yet.

Whether you're just engaged, moving in together, starting a family, or simply tired of throwing money at rent, the questions tend to be the same. This event walks through those questions step by step.

What we cover:

  • The real math on renting vs. buying in NYC right now
  • How the mortgage pre-approval process actually works
  • Co-ops vs. condos — what nobody explains upfront
  • The legal side of a NYC real estate transaction
  • Open Q&A — ask anything, no judgment

Your hosts:
Rebecca Hartvig and Christofer Holland are licensed real estate salespersons with NY Living Solutions | Keller Williams. Together they bring a thoughtful, human approach to navigating the Manhattan market — and a shared belief that first-time buyers deserve real information, not a sales pitch.

Mortgage lending presented by Dave Roberts, Chase Home Lending, who will explain the pre-approval process, financing options, and what lenders actually look for when evaluating buyers.

Legal guidance presented by Scott Scolnick of Scolnick Law, who will walk through the legal steps of a NYC real estate transaction — including contracts, attorney review, escrow, board packages, and closing.

Light refreshments provided. Seats are limited.

This is a small, focused event — not a seminar with 200 people in a hotel ballroom. Register early to reserve your spot.

Seats are intentionally limited so attendees can ask real questions and get thoughtful answers — advance registration is strongly recommended.

Free. No obligation. No pressure.
