It might feel like everyone buys a house at some point in their lives, but home ownership isn't the best option for everyone. This webinar will break down the pros & cons of buying vs renting, the process of buying a home, and important terminology. You'll learn how to identify hidden costs, what's right for you, and ways to prepare for your next move, be that into a rental or home ownership.

You can join for FREE from any device with internet access. You’ll need working speakers or headphones to listen in.
