Upcoming First-Time Home Buyer Classes
Here is a list of some upcoming first-time home buyer classes. A certificate of completion or proof of enrollment in a first-time home buyers class is required with your application in order to be entered into the lottery. If your application is selected, a certificate of completion is required before you will receive a purchase agreement. Check back regularly as we will be adding more classes. This list is meant to help interested applicants find a class- it is not all-inclusive. Potential applicants are welcome to find a different class, as long as they receive a certificate of completion for a First-Time Home Buyers Class.
If you are interested in finding your own class, both the Massachusetts Housing Partnership and CHAPA have lists of available classes. If you have any questions about whether or not a class meets our requirements, please reach out! Below is a list of some upcoming classes- we recommend using the search tools above for a more complete list.
