Keys to Generational Wealth: First‑Time Homebuyer Seminar (Feb. 11)

Keys to Generational Wealth is a free, practical homebuyer seminar designed to take the confusion out of buying your first home and help you build a real plan toward ownership. The class is offered twice at Constitution Place, 325 Chestnut St, Philadelphia: Wednesday, February 11, 2026 (11 AM to 1 PM) and Wednesday, April 1, 2026 (11 AM to 1 PM). You will hear directly from a strong panel of local experts, including Jeff Winick (Luminate Bank), Rachel Russell (Vivid Abstract), Simone “OnHomes” Cartwright (Abundant Home Inspections), and Drew Smith (Trinity Solutions Credit Repair). They will break down down payment assistance and grant programs, loan options (FHA, conventional, and first time buyer programs), credit strategies to qualify and raise scores, the home inspection playbook, and what to expect with title, closing costs, and settlement so nothing catches you off guard.

One major reason to attend is clarity around real programs that can move the needle. Philadelphia’s Philly First Home program offers a homebuyer assistance grant of up to $10,000 (or 6% of the purchase price, whichever is less) for down payment and or closing costs, while funding is available. To qualify for grants like this, buyers must complete a City funded homeownership counseling program before signing an agreement of sale, so this seminar is a great first step to understand what to do in what order.

Registration is required at Keys2GenerationalWealth.eventbrite.com. If you know a friend, family member, or client thinking about buying a home in 2026, forward them this link and tell them to grab a seat.
