Homebuyers Workshop

The Mon Valley Initiative and PNC Bank are teaming together to host a free workshop to help would-be homebuyers get started.

The event is from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, April 11, at the Marriott Courtyard in the Waterfront, West Homestead. Topics will include budgeting to purchase a home, shopping for a home loan and home maintenance. A buffet lunch will be provided.

Since it first began in April 2004, the Housing Counseling program at MVI, a nonprofit that promotes home ownership, has helped more than 525 local families into their first homes.
