7/13/2023 | The 2023 Home Series Class #1 Beginning Your Home Journey
Welcome to the 2023 Home Series class. My name's Rebecca Seedorf. I'm a realtor here in Colorado Springs, the Tri Lakes, and the Denver metro area , and I have partnered with the wonderful interior designer, Jenny Fields from Bella Decor and Design. We are offering three classes available in July, August, and September of this year that shares everything home and design related. At the studio of Bella Decor and Design, we're going to be holding an evening class from 5:30 to 7:00 with wine and hor d'oeuvres. Every attendee gets a free gift, plus a chance to win raffle prizes, and it's reserved seating, tickets are only $10 because it's an exclusive class of only 15 people per class. You definitely want to hold your spot for these classes, but let's go over what the three classes are. Our first class is Beginning Your Home Journey, and in this class, whether or not you are a current homeowner who is deciding to take on a design project for the first time or if you're thinking of purchasing a home with design in mind, this class is for you! It is July 13th from 5:30-7:00pm. Perhaps you've looked for a home that needs updating, but were scared to take on such a large project. What does that project even look like? Well, we answer all that and more. Our guest speaker Rebecca Carr with Fairway Mortgage will be discussing how to fund your home purchase with renovation loans in 2023, which are a lot easier than in past years. She will also share how to allocate your money properly so after the purchase of the home you have money to purchase furniture, artwork, and design your home. For current homeowners she will share how to fund your remodel by refinancing your home. Then Jenny Fields, our interior designer here at Bella Decor and Design, is going to go over what it actually looks like to work with an interior designer. A lot of people think that it might be out of their reach to work with a designer, but they actually have general contractors and a team that make your life easier to create your beautiful design. Then what would you like your design to be? What is your home style? There's lots of styles out there. We're going to go over textures, colors, tiles, everything to kind of help you build a vision board, to help you define your style so that you have that idea to lead with. Beginning Your Home Journey is our class number one.
