What a day. Andrea and Gabriel spent Saturday morning at our booth at the 5th annual Black Men's Wellness Day in Los Angeles. We're proud to be part of a community event that brings awareness to Black men's health, and we were excited to be there.
If you stopped by our booth, thank you. It was great to meet you, and our door is always open if a homebuying question comes up later.

Why we were there
Wellness covers a lot of ground, and a home is part of it for many families. Our booth was a place to ask homebuying questions in plain words, from how pre-approval works to whether a program like CalHFA might help with the down payment. No pressure, and no sign-up needed.
