We encourage all households to complete a homebuyer education course and a one-on-one counseling session before they go under contract to prepare for their homeownership journey. Completing a money management course may also be beneficial for those looking for a deeper dive into personal finances. Clients cannot apply for our DPA programs until they are actively under contract on a home.
Step 1: Introductory Video
Please watch our introductory video to learn about our process with clients who are not under contract. You can also view the presentation slides as a PDF.
Please be sure to check out our Fee Schedule as noted during the video.
Step 2: Education Courses
We offer a Homebuyer Education Course and a Money Management Course for homebuyers. You can complete either of these courses here:
