The City of Janesville Neighborhood & Community Services will again partner to sponsor the Homebuyer Education Workshop classes for Janesville residents throughout 2018. The workshops are designed to inform first-time home buyers of the home purchasing process, provide them with the information needed to make a purchase and prepare them for homeownership. The workshops are free and are open to anyone interested in learning about the home purchasing process.

The Homebuyers Education Workshop will be held on Saturday, April 21 at Salvation Army, 514 Sutherland Avenue, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The workshop is coordinated by NeighborWorks® Blackhawk Region, a HUD-certified Housing Counseling agency and co-sponsored by Old National Bank, Associated Bank, Blackhawk Community Credit Union, Blackhawk Bank, BMO Harris Bank, the City of Janesville, Inlanta Mortgage, and Johnson Bank.

Pre-registration is required for all classes. Due to limited class space, early pre-registration is encouraged.
