Description

In today’s shifting economic landscape, understanding your financing options is more important than ever. 

Join us for a dynamic panel discussion designed to equip homebuyers, homeowners, entrepreneurs, and real estate professionals with practical strategies to navigate lending in a higher-rate environment.

Co-hosted by Bay State Bank, Realtor Association of Central Mass (RACM), Better Business Bureau of Central New England (BBB), and the Small Business Administration (SBA), this expert-led conversation will provide insight into both residential and commercial financing trends — and how individuals and businesses can prepare for success.
