The Kingston Public Library will put on three homebuying seminar sessions sponsored by a local mortgage lender, a real estate agent, and a lawyer during the first two weeks of February at the Adams Center.
They will include “How to obtain a mortgage” on Tuesday, Feb. 4, put on by Michael Fleming of Rockland Trust, “Looking for a new home and the new MLS agent compensation rules” presented by Caty Starr of Jack Conway Realty on Wednesday, February 5, and “Closing on a Real Estate Property” hosted by Christopher Knoth, of Moody & Knoth, P.C. on Tuesday, Feb.11. All three programs will be held at 6 p.m..
Whether someone is looking for a new home, trying to downsize, a first-time home buyer, considering an investment property, or anyone in between, the sessions are structured for any potential homebuyers to learn about the three key phases of the process.
