Mark Your Calendar: Grow your knowledge in May
From homeownership seminars to home cooking, you don’t want to miss these events in May.
Your first steps to homeownership can be daunting. With so many questions, it may be difficult to know where to begin or which resources to trust. Try starting with a free homeownership seminar this month from American Savings Bank.
These seminars partner with industry professionals in real estate and construction to address every concern, for first-time homebuyers, remodelers and real estate investors.
The seminars are held throughout the month, but topics rotate so be sure to plan ahead to attend the one you’re most interested in.
