Looking for a Home Buyer Seminar in Seattle?
UPDATE: All remaining classes will be focused on issues relevant to First Time Homebuyers. New, updated topics below.
WaLaw Realty is offering free workshops for Seattle and Eastside home buyers again in 2012. Join us at our offices in Lower Queen Anne on Wednesday, May 16 and June 20 at 6 pm.
Once again, WaLaw Realty is offering a free home buying workshop to anyone interested in learning more about the Washington home buying process or WaLaw Realty. In fact, we’re offering five of ‘em! These classes will run from 6pm to about 8pm here at our new office in Lower Queen Anne. We’ll provide pizza, beer and soda.
Whether you’re a first time homebuyer or an old pro, you’ll undoubtedly learn something new at these free home buying classes. Plus, you’ll learn about the WaLaw model that combines the services of a real estate agent with the skills of an attorney, all for a fee substantially less than what you would pay a typical agent. Are you a seller? Don’t worry, you’ll still pick up some valuable information, and of course we’ll answer your questions.
Free Home Buyer Seminars for 2012:
Each class will have a unique theme, although every class will be driven primarily by the interests and questions of the attendees. We like talking — we hate lecturing! So even if you think you know everything there is to know about a particular theme, we’re confident you’ll still be glad you came. Our schedule:

March 21: What Every First Time Home Buyer Should Know What are the important steps in the process? Where do I start? How can I save a ton of money? And any other question you might have…. THIS CLASS IS SOLD OUT Feel free to stop by, but we can’t guarantee a seat.
April 18: Is the Seller Responsible? This home buying workshop will also benefit sellers who want to learn more about their potential exposure to a buyer after closing.
May 16: Traps for the Unwary First Time Home Buyer While not exactly “traps” there are certain legal issues that could be a very unpleasant surprise to a naive buyer.
