There is no doubt about it these days first time buyers are a very large part of the market. There are some areas of Rhode Island that specifically lend themselves to these buyers. The cities of Warwick, Cranston, Providence are just a few. The affordable housing, proximity to employment, schools and other services, have historically made these great places to purchase property. Most recently I have helped many first time home buyers from all walks of life, get settled in these cities. Through out the process there is a whole lot of educating the buyer that goes on, and it is a ton of information to digest in a single session. Start with the Federal Governments Housing and Urban Developement ( HUD ) site : http://www.hud.gov/offices/hsg/sfh/buying/buyhm.cfm
