Coastal Housing Partnership’s Home Buying Fair on Saturday, March 1st from 10am to 3pm at Earl Warren Showgrounds in Santa Barbara is a one-stop educational and hands-on opportunity to learn how to navigate the home buying process in today’s real estate market. Free mini-seminars will be presented throughout the day on key aspects of the home buying process and local market conditions. Attendees can learn more about the process of successfully finding a home, qualifying for or refinancing a mortgage, and purchasing and maintaining their home. In addition to resources, prizes and valuable takeaways, the Home Buying Fair has exhibitor booths for attendees to connect home buyers with Santa Barbara and Ventura County home buying experts including local real estate agents, lenders, credit and financial advisors, and residential builders.
