1st Time & 1st Gen Homebuyers: MN Grants & Funding Essentials
Adult / Lifelong Learning -
Adult Winter/Spring 2026
You CAN own your own home! In this class we will review the process of buying a home from A-Z, as well as discuss unique funding that is only available to YOU- a first-time home buyer. With one program, it is possible to buy a home for as little as $1000 of your own funds. You are generally a first-time buyer if you have not owned a home in the past 3 years.
