The National Association of Real Estate Brokers (NAREB) will hold its Birmingham Black Wealth Tour Event on Saturday, November 11, starting at 10 a.m. at The Star Church, 7400 London Avenue. The event, including festive youth activities, will help empower the city’s Black communities with steps towards homeownership, property investment, business, and other wealth-building opportunities. 

Working with Mayor Randall L. Woodfin, who will speak at the event, and local lawyers with the National Bar Association, the event will include classes, workshops, and one-on-one counseling on homebuying, investing, credit, and careers in real estate. The goal of the event is to give Black residents the information they need to build wealth and get answers to questions like how to buy a home. How do you deal with property after the death of a loved one? How to improve your credit score?

“The NAREB Black Wealth Tour events are helping Black families recognize and embark on paths towards gaining wealth,” said Marcus Brown, a NAREB board member from Birmingham. “We are urging families to attend so they can learn more about how to position themselves to become homeowners and gain wealth.”  READ MORE
