Free First-Time Home Buyer Class: Harrisonburg & Shenandoah Valley
Still renting? Learn what it takes to buy your first home, even if you’re not ready yet. No pressure, real answers, limited seats.
If you’ve been renting and wondering whether buying a home is realistic for you, This First-Time Home Buyer Class in Harrisonburg serves future homebuyers throughout Harrisonburg, Rockingham County, and the Shenandoah Valley.
Many future homebuyers assume they need perfect credit, a large down payment, or years of preparation before they can buy. In reality, you may be closer than you think, you just need the right information and a clear plan.
In this free, in-person workshop, Realtor Derek Chaudhuri of Kline May Realty and Veronica Amato of F&M Mortgage will explain the home-buying process in straightforward terms. Food and beverages will also be provided.
You’ll learn about:
- Credit and what lenders look for
- Pre-approval and mortgage options
- Down payments and closing costs
- First-time home buyer programs
- Finding the right home
- Making and negotiating an offer
- Home inspections and appraisals
- What happens from contract to closing
Whether you want to buy soon or are still months away, this class is designed to help you understand where you stand and what your next step should be.
This is not a high-pressure sales presentation. It is an educational opportunity to ask questions, get real answers, and make informed decisions about homeownership
