First Time Home buyer Workshops–Updated Calendar for 2008

I have noticed quite a few in-bound links lately from those looking for more information about First Time Home Buyers programs and classes in Florida. Our post last year had a very good response and I had been planning on making an update but was waiting for the CCCS to update their list and it looks like they just recently did.
Your local community has tailor made programs to help ensure you have all the pertinent information that you will need as you make one of the biggest decisions of your life, that of becoming a home owner.
They will take you step-by-step, from contract to closing, through the home buying process. You will learn what it takes to qualify for a mortgage, how to save for a down payment and even provide information regarding down payment assistance.
Should you have additional questions or when you are ready to start your search after completing the classes. please be sure to email either Theresa or Marie and they can give you some one on one coaching and personal advice that will take you on the next step of your journey to home ownership.
Here is the link to the work shops offered by the Consumer Credit Counseling Service (CCCS) of Central Florida
Right now I don’t see a schedule update on their site for Hillsboro County, but they do have dates for Pasco and Pinellas Counties…just click on the associated links
