The HBE Course was very informative to someone who has no idea where to start from beginning to end.
One of the spots that I thought was the most interesting was talking about financing in lending. I didn't realize there were so many moving parts in that area. I am excited to do some pre-purchase counseling so that I can get a feel for how well I am doing financially.
Everything was VERY helpful and informative, they didn't miss a thing. The most helpful topic for me was the whole home buying process, my boyfriend and I are looking to buy a house together. We aren't married and were worried that would complicate the process but the HBE team walked us through how to easily do that.
The Pre-Purchase Course was really helpful. It taught me the pros and cons of owning a home and all the steps needed to get ready to purchase. Having the one-on-one counseling was very helpful. It was nice to be able to ask more in-depth, unique-to-me questions. Pre-Purchase Housing Counseling is a great resource that everyone should take advantage of!
