I am holding a Home Buying seminar on Thursday, March 27, 2008, at the Castlewood Library in Centennial (Arapahoe Road just west of I-25). I will be joined by Charlie Kirchhoff from America’s Mortgage and Art Rosenboom from Farmer’s Insurance. Some of the topics we will cover will include: the current housing market, different housing types, the home buying process and new contracts, different loan products (fixed v. variable), interest rates, what constitutes loan approval, closing costs, the CLUE insurance report, fire dept. ISO ratings that affect your insurance rates, and insurance coverage review. There will be a question and answer session and handouts available.

This class would be especially helpful to first-time buyers. However, with all of the changes in the housing market, financing and insurance requirements lately, there should be useful information for any home buyers.

Let me know if you know of anyone who might be interested in attending.

Please RSVP by Monday, March 24.

Thanks!

Greg Foster
