The purchase of a home is often the single largest financial transaction that an individual or family will make. The home buying process can seem complex, as there are many factors that determine when is the right time to buy a home. This is especially true for service members given that periodic relocation is typically an inherent part of military service. This web conference will discuss the home buying process including: financial readiness for the purchase, how to determine housing affordability and service-related considerations that may influence the purchase decision.
