Throughout the year, on two consecutive nights, Catholic Social Services sponsors Homebuyer Education Workshops for First Time Homebuyers that walk you through the necessary steps to finance and purchase a property. Topics covered include: Budgeting and Credit, Shopping for a Home, Multi-family Ownership, Home Inspection, Obtaining a Mortgage, Appraisals/Insurance, Legal Issues, Mass Housing Programs, etc. Upon Completing the two nights, you receive a certificate that allows you to access particular loans and loan rates not readily available to all buyers as well as loan programs that the state or a local municipality may offer.
