Commission-Sponsored Homebuyer Education Seminars

Schedule of seminars sorted by Date | by City | Languages other than English

Through local partnerships, the Commission helps homebuyers learn how to purchase and maintain a home. Commission-sponsored homebuyer education seminars are the first step in purchasing a home.

Commission-sponsored seminars:

• Are free and open to the public, include information about the Commission's low-interest rate House Key State Bond first mortgage program, down payment assistance, and other loan programs; and
• Are accepted by all affordable housing loan programs as meeting or exceeding educational requirements.

All instructors have attended training and have agreed to standards which assure you that seminars:

• Are at least five hours in length, covering all major aspects of the home buying process
• Are presented in an open, unbiased format
• Use approved training materials and handouts
• Are offered by professionals who have attended our House Key and Homebuyer Education Instructor training
• No direct marketing or sales presentations may be given either by the instructor or any guest speakers

Reservations are required for all seminars.

If you will be using the low-interest rate State Bond House Key program to purchase your home, you must complete the seminar before your loan officer can lock in your interest rate.

DISCLAIMER  The sponsorship by the Commission of a homebuyer education seminar does not endorse a person, business practice, product or service other than those of the Commission.

Many people find they gain enough information at the seminar to successfully locate and finance a home of their own.  Others may find they need additional assistance.  Contact us with questions at askusHO@wshfc.org.
