ATLANTA - July 29, 2014 - PRLog -- According to a recent Trulia survey, 74 percent of Americans say that homeownership is part of achieving their personal American Dream. By offering affordable pricing and stylish home designs in sought-after locations, Smith Douglas Homes is dedicated to helping first-time home buyers make the transition to first-time homeowners. On Saturday, Aug. 9, the Atlanta home builder in conjunction with Fidelity Bank will host a First-time Home Buyers Workshop.

Beginning at 10 a.m., the workshop will be hosted at Smith Douglas Homes’ newest Paulding County community, Ballentine Pointe. Purchasing a home, especially a first home, is one of the most important decisions, so the workshop will cover multiple topics including financing, why buy now, working with a new home specialist, working with your builder, the closing and much more. Following the workshop, attendees will have the opportunity to take part in a Q&A session with a panel of experts from 11 a.m. until noon. The day will conclude with a block-style party that includes a catered lunch from The Varsity.

Since the workshop will be held in the brand new model home, attendees will have the opportunity to see firsthand the spacious floor plans and upscale design options available at Ballentine Pointe.

Individuals that attend the event and purchase a home at Ballentine Pointe can receive $5,000 toward closing costs*. Interested home buyers are encouraged to RSVP for the workshop by calling 404-518-4712 or emailing BallentinePointe@SmithDouglas.com.
