Homebuyer workshop set for Oct. 21

A free First Time Homebuyer Workshop is planned from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Oct. 21 at YES Cinema, 328 Jackson St., in Columbus. The workshop is presented by Apprisen, First Financial Bank, Southern Indiana Housing and Community Development Corp., and the Lincoln-Central Neighborhood Homebuyer Program.

The workshop will focus on preparing for homeownership, working with a real estate agent, understanding budgets and credit history, finding and working with a lender, home inspections and maintenance, and preventing loan default.

Each person in attendance will receive a HUD homebuyer certificate of completion. Registration is required in advance, as space is limited.
