May 23, 2009 - With the new $8,000 tax credit for first time homebuyers under the new Obama administration, many people are taking advantage of home buying while home prices are low.

Keller Williams Preferred Properties wants to help potential homeowners succeed in that endeavor.

At Keller Williams University, students came out to learn about the intricacies involved in the home buying process.   Students learned financing, settlement, taxes, money management and more during the eight-hour, intense training class.

“With the announcement of the Neighborhood Stabilization Program which translates into up to $20,000.00 in grant money for first time buyers, there has been an avalanche of people signing up for the first time home buyer classes", writes William Murray, a Keller Williams real estate professional.

Students received a certificate at the end of the class, and walked away with a wealth of knowledge and a better understanding of what it takes to become a new homeowner.

Home buying counseling is also available for potential home owners through Housing Options Planning Enterprises, Inc. (HOPE) at www.hopeonline.com.
