Each year, the City of Milwaukee and Take Root Milwaukee host an annual Homeownership Fair to encourage home buying in the city and to market City-owned properties and resources. It’s also a chance for residents to learn about loans and grants available to both homebuyers and existing homeowners.

DCD Real Estate/STRONG Neighborhoods and NIDC will once again staff two tables at the event this year. Residents can connect with lenders, realtors, homeownership specialists and neighborhood organizations. Resources for foreclosure prevention will also be available. Workshops (Spanish/English) will be held on home buying (9 a.m. and 11 a.m.) and home rehab (10 a.m.).

Please plan to visit us on Saturday, March 18, from 8:00 a.m. to noon at The Italian Conference Center, 631 E. Chicago Street. FREE lot parking is available or jump on the bus (near route 15 and the Green Line). View flier in English or in Spanish (En español). Sign up or share the facebook event page.

Until then, continue reading more online about properties for sale, neighborhood events and updates, helpful resources and homeownership opportunities!
