Purchasing a home is usually one of the largest purchases we make in our lifetime. It's a big decision and knowing as much as you can going into the process makes all the difference. It could save you a lot of time, money and potential trouble down the road.

MSF helps people to be informed homebuyers. We offer home buyer courses regularly in Bangor and Rockland

The course covers many topics such as:

o Preparing for upfront cost and ongoing cost of maintaining a home

o How to find the right lender and realtor for you?

o What can you afford

Many people want to buy a home but aren't quite where they need to be financially.
