Credit and Budget Skills for Homebuyers
Our credit and budgeting workshop is four hours in length and will show you not only why budgeting is important for a family to meet specific goals, but will also give you the tools to build an effective family budget. We'll also work with you to show you where you can trim expenses to save funds for down-payment on a home. Trained instructors present information about credit reports, how to fix credit and why credit is important. They will give you tools to help you repair credit, if necessary, and to avoid common credit pitfalls. Upcoming class dates:
Saturday, July 9th, 8 am - 12 noon ** At United Way of Northern Arizona
1515 E. Cedar Ave, Suite D-1
