In this seminar, you will learn about:

  • How to qualify for and obtain a mortgage loan
  • How to find a home that meets your goals and family needs

  • How to complete and negotiate your home purchase contract
  • What is included in a professional home inspection
  • Homeowner's insurance options and what to select in a policy
  • Closing on the home and what is included in the process
