Back to School: Your Crash Course in Home Buying

Buying a home can feel overwhelming, especially if you’ve never done it before. Between figuring out your finances, understanding the market, and trying to decide when to make a move, it’s easy to get stuck in research mode. That’s why we created our free virtual workshop Back to School: Your Crash Course in Home Buying—to help you cut through the noise and get real answers from local experts.

Whether you're actively searching for homes or just starting to think about buying in Raleigh, Durham, or the surrounding areas, this workshop is designed to meet you where you are.

Why You Should Attend (Even If You're Not Ready Yet)

One of the biggest mistakes homebuyers make is waiting too long to get informed. The truth is, understanding the process early puts you in a much better position when you’re ready to move forward. You’ll be able to plan with more confidence, avoid common mistakes, and take advantage of opportunities when they come up.

This workshop is a no-pressure way to learn what to expect, how to prepare, and what you can do now to set yourself up for success later.

You don’t need to have a preapproval, a perfect credit score, or even a move-in date in mind. All you need is curiosity and the willingness to learn.
