Keller Williams Realty agents Matt Evans and Kimberly Genovese, along with various lenders are teaching a homebuyers class that will cover a variety of topics from buying foreclosed homes to getting the right loan package. There will also be a certified home appraiser onhand to discuss today's home values.

Value Homebuying 2009 will be held Tuesday, October 13, 2009 at 6:30pm at the Valparaiso YMCA located at 1201 Cumberland Crossing Drive.

This seminar is open to the public. There is no cost for the seminar, but RSVP is requested since refreshments will be served. Door prizes will be awarded. Sponsors include Meridian Title, Lakeshore Mortgage Group, and Cornerstone Mortgage Advisors. Topics covered will include buying foreclosed homes, HUD homes, short sales, and buying at the "bottom" of the market. Discussion will also include the soon expiring $8,000 tax credit, 2009 home values, and other grant programs like special FHA and USDA rural financing. Several "Did you know?" facts will be presented.

Value Homebuying 2009 will be an open panel discussion with Q&A, for a very informal and interactive environment. Lending professionals Sabrina Gettler from Cornerstone Mortgage and Harvey Peddle from Lakeshore Mortgage will join Matt and Kimberly in the seminar panel.

Value Homebuying 2009 builds on the proven business methods of Keller Williams Realty, a company that just received the prestigious JD Power award for being rated #1 in nationally in homebuyer satisfaction. The panelists invite expired listings and for-sale-by-owner home sellers to the event as well, as they might learn about the opportunities and challenges in today's home marketplace.
