About The Classes
The Kitsap Housing Coalition is a local partnership of lenders, realtors, housing service agencies, and other home ownership related services. The class is a 5 hr. course. Our goal is to prepare you for home ownership and familiarize you with the home buying process and programs. Certificates are given after the 5 hr.session is completed. Attendance is a requirement for many of the First Time Home Buyer and Down payment Assistance programs. The certificate is good for two years. There is No Charge For The Class Or The Handouts. We invite you to attend. Instructors are certified by Wash State Housing Finance Commission
