Jim Caramello, University Area CDC director of real estate, says, “Purchasing a home is a big decision, especially for first-time homebuyers.  Participants who complete this course will be better prepared for what to expect during the purchase transaction, learn about the ongoing responsibilities of owning a home and receive information on numerous financial perks, including down-payment assistance.  Increasing the rate of homeownership in the University Area community is a significant component of our Neighborhood Transformation Strategy.  Partnerships with organizations like R.E.A.C.H., who provide these homebuyer education classes at no cost, are a great fit for UACDC to equip our residents with the needed knowledge and support to achieve the dream of homeownership.”   

Sponsors include PNC Bank, University Area CDC and R.E.A.C.H. Three additional workshops will be offered in 2023; dates to be announced.
