About Washington Housing Education

Washington Housing Education has provided homebuyer seminars in the Seattle Metro area since 1997 – our area’s longest running home buyer education group. Over 18,000 Puget Sound residents have attended Washington Housing Education and IGotSmart Educational Seminars. The curriculum also includes content sponsored by the Washington State Housing Finance Commission, a local nonprofit that provides down payment assistance programs to qualified first time homebuyers.

Our mission is to educate the general public about the advantages and pitfalls centered on the acquisition of real estate. By utilizing exceptional industry professionals who are willing to donate their time, talents and materials, we are able to keep costs minimal or free while helping local residents achieve the “American Dream” of owning real estate.

Each instructor donates his or her time and class materials without compensation for doing so. Our instructor volunteers and the companies they represent are the heart and soul of Washington Housing Education and IGotSmart Educational Seminars. As a testament to the high quality content of these seminars, thousands of past attendees have personally given their written recommendations.
