Home Buyer Education

FIRST TIME HOME BUYERS SEMINARS
The Long Beach Housing Development Company strongly believes an informed first-time home buyer is far better equipped to make smarter decisions that will pay off in the future.

In Home Buyer Seminars, you’ll learn how to select a home, find a realtor, choose a lender, and understand the financial issues involved with securing an affordable mortgage.

Few things in life are as confusing and frightening as buying your first home.  The home buying process isn’t complicated or mysterious. Once you understand it, buying your first home won’t be as scary.

Everyone who completes a seminar receives a Certificate of Completion verifying that you’re ready to become a first-time home buyer.

NOTE: This seminar is required for participation in City of Long Beach and LBHDC Home Buying Programs
