First-time homeowners can face many challenges during the first few years in their new home, but with the right resources and education, they can surmount these obstacles successfully. We’re arming DC homeowners with the tools and knowledge they need to navigate all the ups and downs of homeownership. Our Home$mart post-purchase classes help new homeowners tackle the challenges that can arise in the first few years of homeownership and beyond. These classes are for current homeowners looking for knowledge and resources to help them be successful homeowners. Additionally, these classes can be counted toward sweat equity hours for families that are already owners of DC Habitat homes.
Our first class series, “Life After Settlement,” focuses on what to do after you’ve closed on your home to prepare for the future. Over the course of this series, you’ll learn what’s in those mortgage documents, home maintenance and repairs, how to create a S.M.A.R.T. budget and save, how to prevent mortgage delinquency and foreclosure, how to go green and do-it-yourself, and what good credit looks like and how you can get it.
