Sunnyvale, CA First Time Homebuyer Workshop Saturday October 16

The real estate market continues to be a challenge for many new homebuyers in Sunnyvale. Understanding our local real estate market trends and home loan availability is important in order to make an informed decision when it comes to buying your first home. For the first time in a long while, October has experienced a slight upward trend in home sales. This is good news for sellers, as real estate prices continued in a downward slope in prior months.

This may be the first sign the market is changing. For buyers, this means that home prices will begin to climb again if the market continues in this direction. Is now the right time to buy a house in Sunnyvale? It is difficult, if not impossible, to try and "time" things so that you buy at the optimal time.

The best tool any buyer can have is accurate and timely information. The City of Sunnyvale is holding a workshop especially designed for first time homebuyers to help you make an informed buying decision.

This Saturday, October 16, at 10 a.m. presenters will offer non-biased information on buying a home in Sunnyvale. They will provide information about "affordable housing options in Sunnyvale, including the Below Market Rate (BMR) programs, the First Time Home Buyer (FTHB) Loan Program, and other home buyer programs," according to the City of Sunnyvale.

These free presentations will be held in the Sunnyvale City Council Chambers in City Hall, 456 W. Olive Ave.
