HOPE Expo is a virtual two-day Workshop and Exhibit offered FREE to prospective Home Buyers on an annual basis.
This is the 33rd annual HOPE Expo and it will be held on Saturday June 8, 2024.
This Home Ownership Event is made possible through the efforts of a number of Tampa Bay Area Non-Profit and Government-Funding Agencies, Lenders and Realtors volunteering their time to work together in the planning of the Expo.
Our goal is to help you achieve the Dream of Home Ownership by providing you access to experienced professionals involved in many facets of the Home Buying field.
The Exhibit Hall will feature over 30 housing-related Professionals for you to visit and receive information. The Exhibitors include Lenders, Real Estate Agents, Credit Counselors, Down Payment Assistance Programs, and many more.
The Workshop will answer questions such as:
- Do I qualify for any Assistance Programs?
- How do I qualify for a mortgage?
- What documents will a Lender need?
- Where do I start?
- Why is a good credit report so important? How do I clean up my credit?
- Do I need a Home Inspection?
- How are my Property Taxes determined?
- How can I save money by conserving energy?
- How can I protect myself with Homeowners Insurance?
Those who complete the Home Ownership Workshop will receive a “Certificate” after the event. This Certificate can help you satisfy the education requirements for a variety of Affordable Housing Loans and Down Payment Assistance Programs. The Certificate is NOT an Approval for Assistance OR for a Mortgage. You must still complete an Application and meet the qualifying criteria.
WE KNOW YOU WILL FIND HOPE Expo 2024 TO BE VALUABLE AND INFORMATIVE AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO YOU JOINING US ON Saturday, June 8, 2024.
