Home Buyer Education

Utah State University is pleased to provide this version of the Home Buyers Education program online that is taught in the Salt Lake City metropolitan area. Research indicates that consumers who have completed a home buyers education program have a lower default rate, and a better home buying experience than those that have not.

Lessons

The six lessons included in this course will help you put together the pieces to the home buying puzzle. University Extension Family and Consumer Science faculty Teresa Hunsaker and Marilyn Albertson will help you understand the fundamentals in purchasing a home. They will give you the tools to be educated consumers to help find a home that will fit your needs and budget. The lessons will empower you as the buyer by teaching the key points to financing , the laws involved, and the loan process all together.

Certification

There is no charge for this program unless you need a certificate of completion as may be required by your lender or other entity involved in your home purchase. There is a $15 fee for course certification. Click here for more information on course certification. To register click here or call 801-468-3177.

On-site Classes

We believe that on-site classes offer that greater learning experience and encourage prospective home buyers to use the National Extension Sites link to find a program in their community. However, since on-site classes are not always available, this online class can help you prepare for the home buying process.
