Homeport Central Ohio First Time Homebuyer Fair is June 17, 2026
For many Americans, homeownership remains one of the most significant investments they will ever make. Beyond providing a place to live, owning a home creates opportunities to build equity, establish financial stability, and create a legacy for future generations.
That’s why Homeport’s upcoming First-Time Homebuyer Fair is such an important event for Central Ohio residents.
Taking place on Wednesday, June 17, 2026, from 2 PM to 6 PM at Homeport’s headquarters located at 3443 Agler Road, the fair is designed to provide aspiring homeowners with the tools, resources, and connections needed to navigate today’s housing market.
Buying a home can feel overwhelming. Questions about credit scores, mortgage approval, down payment requirements, and affordability often prevent people from taking the first step. Homeport’s event aims to remove those barriers by bringing together trusted professionals who can answer questions and provide guidance in one convenient location.
Attendees will have direct access to lenders, real estate professionals, housing counselors, and financial experts who understand the challenges first-time buyers face. Participants will learn about financing options, down payment assistance programs, credit improvement strategies, and practical steps to prepare for successful homeownership.
The event also highlights an important truth: homeownership is still one of the most effective ways to build wealth over time. Through property appreciation and equity growth, homeowners often create financial opportunities that can benefit their families for generations.
For decades, Homeport has been a leader in affordable housing and community development throughout Central Ohio. Their commitment to creating opportunities for individuals and families has helped strengthen neighborhoods and improve quality of life across the region.
As Central Ohio continues to grow, educational events like the First-Time Homebuyer Fair ensure that more residents have access to the information and resources necessary to participate in that growth through homeownership.
If purchasing a home is one of your goals, this event could be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
