At the Commons Foundation, we believe that knowledge is the key to confident and successful homeownership. Our Homeownership Education Program offers clear, practical guidance to help individuals and families navigate the financial aspects of buying a home. We provide occasional seminars—both for groups and one-on-one sessions—that cover a range of topics including budgeting, credit, mortgage options, down payment planning, and understanding closing costs. Whether you're a first-time buyer or looking for additional support, our program is designed to empower you with the tools and information you need to make informed decisions on your path to owning a home.

Upcoming Event: Keeping the Family Home in the Family

6pm, Tuesday, November 17th - Little Compton Wellness Center

For many families, their home is more than just a place to live; it's their largest financial asset and an opportunity to create lasting generational wealth.

Join us for an educational discussion on how thoughtful estate planning can help protect your home, minimize potential taxes, avoid unnecessary probate costs, and ensure that the wealth you've built can benefit future generations.

We'll explore the basics of trusts, property transfers, and how to avoid common estate planning mistakes to make transferring your home to your loved ones easier.
