Need help figuring out how to buy a home? The Southern California Home Buyer’s Fair -- sponsored by the real estate industry and the L.A. Times -- might offer some tips.
Realtors, economists and other professionals will be on hand to break down the process of home buying, finding and buying foreclosures, monitoring and fixing credit, finding and qualifying for home loans and other topics in more than 50 how-to seminars and 75 exhibit booths.
Admission is free; the first 200 people who show up each day get free movie tickets.
The second annual conference is sponsored by the California Assn. of Realtors and the Los Angeles Times and will be held at the Los Angeles Convention Center on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Representatives from the Realtors association will also be on hand to discuss their Mortgage Protection Program, which offers qualifying first-time home buyers who are laid off as much as $1,500 a month to help make their mortgage payments.
