For more information about our fee schedule click here. Breakfast and Lunch are provided for no additional charge. We also try to have a lender, a realtor, and an attorney speak at each class. See our Calendar of Events page for information on the next class. ACRHA has often taken the homebuyer education class "on the road" and is happy to do so in the future if enough interest can be demonstrated. Please feel free to contact us at any time about arranging a class in a particular location. Completion of an approved homebuyer education course is a prerequisite for ACRHA's Acquisition and Rehabilitation Program. It may also be a requirement for obtaining mortgage financing. ACRHA will also accept a certificate of completion of this course from other agencies on a case-by-case basis. ACRHA is now offering the Home Buyer Education class online.The class is being offered through ehome America. If you find it difficult to find the time to attend a class it is available online. There is a fee of $50.00 and you will receive a certificate of completion at the end contingent on a passing score on the test. Yes, there is a test but if you pay attention you'll pass. You will need to meet with a housing counselor prior to obtaining your certificate. click here for more info or to access the online class. ehomeameria/acrha To register for our next class contact -Lauren or Tracy |
