MCU hosted its first First-Time Homebuyers Seminar of the year at Hotel Pennsylvania in Manhattan on Saturday, March 30, 2019. The event, which was attended by more than 500 people, covered important topics including income qualifications, mortgage escrow, FHA Loans, private mortgage insurance, credit scores and potential home-buying grants.
In addition to being lead a team of MCU Mortgage Loan Originators, the seminar hosted a panel of independent experts who shared their unique insights and knowledge of the home-buying process. Real estate agent Dennis Cotto, home inspector Anthony Grieco, real estate attorney Michael E. Steiner, Esq. and appraiser John McCullagh used their expertise to answer questions from the audience, offered guidance and serves as a valuable resource to attendees.
“For many of our members, buying a home isn’t just a financial commitment, it’s an exciting milestone that marks a new beginning for themselves and their families,” said MCU Vice President of Mortgage Operations Anie Akpe, who welcomed guests to the event. “We’re very proud to provide them with the tools and resources that will help them as they go through the home-buying process. I look forward to working with each of them when the time comes!”
