Helping Future Homebuyers Navigate the Path to Homeownership

For many people, homeownership represents stability, opportunity, and a major personal milestone, but knowing how to get started can often feel intimidating. From understanding mortgage options to preparing financially for the realities of buying a home, the process can quickly become overwhelming without the right guidance.

To help make the journey more approachable, Ponce Bank is partnering with Schneps Media to host a free educational webinar,Your Path to Homeownership, on Thursday, May 21 at 11AM. The virtual session is designed to give prospective buyers practical insights and clearer direction as they navigate the homebuying process.

During the webinar, Ponce Bank’s residential lending professionals will discuss what buyers should know before beginning their search, how to strengthen financial readiness, the differences between mortgage options, and what to expect throughout the loan application and closing process. Attendees will also gain insight into common pitfalls that can delay or complicate the path to purchasing a home.

The session will feature Sonita Distefano, Chief Residential Lending Officer at Ponce Bank, and Elgin Buenconsejo, VP Loan Origination, who will share their expertise and answer questions live during the discussion.

As a community-focused financial institution, Ponce Bank remains committed to helping individuals and families access the knowledge and resources needed to make informed financial decisions and build long-term stability.
