Whether you are buying, maintaining, selling or have concerns about financial or other homeowner-related issues, you are in the right place.
Here you will find a local network of professional women dedicated to helping you with the unique challenges you face when it comes to real estate and home ownership.
When making home ownership decisions, women have different needs and concerns, whether security, style, financing, investment decisions or maintenance. Although single women are the fastest growing segment of homebuyers, the traditional real estate model has never before been addressed from a female point of view. But we are changing that.
This website also offers articles on a variety of topics and resources that can help you improve your home, prepare your house for sale and improve your lifestyle, along with services you might need as a homeowner or homebuyer.
In an effort to share information and give back to our community, the Women Homeowners Network of Santa Cruz County (WHN) will be holding various informational seminars throughout the year.
Our first event is "What do I need to know to buy my first home?"
You will learn:
1. I've decided to buy. What do I do if I'm renting?
2. Budgeting for your move. How much can I afford to spend?
3. How to hire a qualified real estate agent to represent your interests.
4. Types of financing available and tips for qualifying for a loan.
5. How to make an offer to purchase.
6. How the Title & Escrow process works.
7. How to protect your investment.
8. Tax benefits of home ownership.
