Home Buyers & Sellers Forum @ Flourish Studios

Parents University

  • How do I prepare my finances for purchasing a home and what should I know about qualifying for a mortgage? 
  • How can I incorporate a school search into my house search? 
  • How do I prepare and market my home for sale? 
  • What are the most important aspects of a home sale or purchase from a contractual and legal point of view? 

 

This new Home Buyers & Sellers Forum will address these and other important, and at times mysterious, questions facing people who are in the process of selling and/or purchasing a home, or are preparing to purchase their first home.  Join NPN and our experienced panel as we discuss the ins and outs of: searching for a school; marketing a home for sale and searching for a new home; qualifying for a mortgage; contract review and home inspection; title review; and closing.
