Congratulations on taking your first steps toward buying a home!

The first thing to know is that you are registering for the HomeOwner Basics program – not a specific class. The Portland Housing Center is here to help you through the entire home buying process. There is a non-refundable materials fee of $65 per household. Your registration entitles you to home buying services at the Portland Housing Center for a two year period including:

• HomeBuyer Assessment
• Tri-Merge Credit Report
• Financial Fitness series
• HomeBuying 101 (HUD-certified home buyer education course)
• One-on-One HomeBuyer Counseling
• Loan Consultation
• Pre-closing Meeting and Loan Document Review

One you have completed the registration, please allow 3-5 business days for a member of our staff to complete your HomeBuyer Assessment. We will then contact you to schedule the appropriate class or appointment. If you have a special situation and need to take a particular class due to your loan closing, please note that on your registration form
