DENVER, May 20, 2025 (Newswire.com) - June is Homeownership Awareness Month, and The CE Shop is here to arm hopeful buyers with the knowledge and tools they need to start their homebuying process. As the leader in real estate education, The CE Shop works closely with industry experts to provide actionable insights that foster stability for individuals while strengthening communities.
Expert Tips for Successful Homeownership from The CE Shop:
Work With a Compassionate (and Knowledgeable) Real Estate Agent
Find the right agent for you and your family, one who can clarify the homebuying process and find solutions that align to your household's unique needs. Don't hesitate to ask for resources to deepen your understanding of the options available. The journey of homeownership has many paths, and is different for everyone.Recognize That Owning a Home is a Smart Financial Move
Owning a home is about more than just having a place to call your own. It can help individuals and families build equity, open potential tax benefits, and create a more secure future.Leverage Modern Solutions for Down Payments
The days of needing a 20% down payment are behind us. Today, many buyers can qualify for as little as 3-5% down. Programs like down payment assistance (DPAs), grants, FHA and USDA loans, shared equity programs, and crowd sourcing are ideal for home seekers. With 45% of young adults aged 18-29 still living at home, some may not realize how close homeownership could be.Understand the Emotional and Community Benefits
Homeownership can create peace of mind, reduce stress, and instill a sense of belonging. It builds better communities and can create generational stability through housing equity.Be Open to Diverse Housing Options
Homeownership doesn't have to mean a single-family detached house with a fenced yard and white picket fence. Condos, duplexes, townhomes, and other multi-family units can provide a fulfilling family life while still building a path to equity.
"Housing insecurity often leads to physical, mental, and emotional strain," explains Michelle White, National Mortgage Expert at The CE Shop. "Children, in particular, can face challenges related to cognitive development and behavior due to the instability caused by high housing costs or frequent moves. With Homeownership Awareness Month, we're working to make this dream attainable for more individuals. Thanks to lower down payment requirements, many buyers can now own a home with just 3-5% of the purchase price."
