Help for Buyers at Home Fair Saturday

Thinking about buying a home, but feeling overwhelmed by the decisions and dollars it takes to crack the Southland real estate market?

Get expert help this Saturday at the first of The Times’ three Home Buyers Fairs.

Panels of realtors, home builders and lenders, government housing officials and consumer advocates will answer your questions at morning and afternoon sessions.

More than 50 exhibitors will provide free information and services--credit checks, home prices in your neighborhood, mortgage prequalification, tax deduction information--and will help you make a smart decision on what, where and how to buy.

The fair will run from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Saturday at the Los Angeles County Fairgrounds in Pomona.

For a guide to the fair, please see the second section of Real Estate.
