In honor of National Homeownership Month, LowCountry Habitat of Humanity is excited to announce the inaugural Beaufort Housing Symposium.

Beaufort County residents have a number of available resources to assist current and future homeowners to save for a down payment, build good credit and find an affordable home and mortgage. Purchasing and maintaining a home can be challenging for those seeking the American Dream of homeownership. This informational Symposium will connect Beaufort County residents with housing officials, who will lead workshops on all the necessary components of purchasing and maintaining a home.

The Symposium will be held Saturday, June 3, 2023 in Building 12 at the Technical College of the Lowcountry. The all-day event will begin with a morning panel discussion from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. that will feature local and state housing officials from the nonprofit, government and private sectors. A variety of homebuying and homeownership workshop sessions will follow, to include an heirs property clinic from the Heirs’ Property Preservation and a wills clinic presented by Lowcountry Legal Volunteers.

Seating is limited. Please sign up in advance at www.lowcountryhabitat.org. Lunch will be provided at no charge to the first 100 attendees, courtesy of The United Way of the Lowcountry. For more information, please contact Susan Madison, Family Services Coordinator,  at susan@lowcountryhabitat.org or 843.522.3500.
