The newest graduates of our first-time homebuyer education class

Paving the Way to Homeownership

(March 24, 2022) Over the course of three weeks in March, participants of our first-time homebuyer ed class determined their home buyer readiness.

Local professionals Beth Ann Meehan of Cape Cod 5 Savings Bank, Penny Dey of Atlantic East Real Estate, Attorney Julie Fitzgerald, Marc Gazaille of Nantucket Home Inspection, and Vin DeBaggis of Rogers|Gray Insurance shared insight about how to best navigate the homebuying process.  Specific topics included how to resolve credit issues, how to qualify for a mortgage, the importance of a home inspection, and much more. All of these components prepare buyers for a successful real estate transaction and beyond.

After taking this class, participants noted:

“I’m more confident about and prepared for the homebuying process.”

“After taking this class, I know I have a supportive team of professionals to guide and assist me in the process of becoming a successful homeowner.” 

“Housing Nantucket is doing important work that not only validates the real, painful struggles faced by those in need of housing on Nantucket, but also provides solutions to these struggles.”

Above all, we hope these individuals rely on these new tips and tools as they embark on their house hunting journey.
