HOMEBUYER EDUCATION
Doing anything for the first time can be daunting. Don’t let buying your first home overwhelm you. Check out our Steps to Buying a Home and register for a Homebuyer Education class, available in-person and online, in English and Spanish.
RIHousing customers who are first-time homebuyers are required to take a Homebuyer Education class prior to closing.

HOMEBUYER EDUCATION
NEW: Virtual Homebuyer Education classes
“Get Educated!” from the comfort of your home! RIHousing is pleased to launch our virtual Homebuyer Education Classes to help prospective homebuyers understand the process of buying and keeping a home. The virtual option replaces our in-person class and information is presented “live” by our homebuying expert.
Please note: prospective homebuyers are still able to take the online ‘Framework’ course offered by Fannie Mae, if that better suits their needs and schedule. Both class options are offered free of charge and participants will receive a Certificate of Completion for either class.
Customers who are first-time homebuyers are required to participate in one of these classes prior to closing on a RIHousing loan.
*Please note that the completion of RIHousing’s Homebuyer Education class may not satisfy the Homebuyer Education requirements for other lenders or agencies providing down payment and/or closing cost assistance.
