A major real estate and financial literacy event is set to empower aspiring homeowners in Manitoba, offering practical guidance on how residents and newcomers can successfully transition from renting to owning property. The upcoming seminar, Foundations of Homeownership, will bring together industry professionals to educate participants on building equity, navigating the housing market, and achieving long-term financial stability.
Hosted by real estate agent Udodiri Elizabeth Anyiaka of Keller Williams Real Estate Services, the event is designed to simplify the often complex process of purchasing a home. Organizers say the initiative focuses on equipping attendees with the knowledge and confidence needed to make informed property decisions in an evolving housing market.
The seminar will take place on March 7, 2026, from 12:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m., at 200–301 Nassau Street North, Winnipeg, Manitoba. The session is open to both first-time buyers and individuals seeking deeper insight into real estate investment, mortgage planning, and financial preparedness.
A lineup of experienced professionals will address key areas of the homeownership journey. Mortgage broker MC Freeman will provide guidance on securing financing and understanding mortgage structures. Immigration lawyer Ifeoma Ofokansi will discuss how residency and legal status may influence property ownership opportunities. Financial advisor Esther Sande will offer strategies for budgeting, credit improvement, and long-term wealth building through real estate.
According to the organizers, the event reflects growing demand for accessible housing education, particularly among newcomers and young professionals seeking to establish financial independence. With rising housing costs and changing lending conditions, understanding the fundamentals of homeownership has become increasingly important for prospective buyers.
Participants will also have the opportunity to ask questions, connect with experts, and explore practical steps toward purchasing their first home. Registration is available via the event’s QR code, and refreshments will be provided. The seminar is sponsored by Chivida Touch Cleaning & Interior Decoration Services.
Industry observers note that community-focused events such as this play a critical role in improving financial literacy and supporting responsible homeownership, helping individuals move from short-term renting toward long-term asset building and financial security.
