Monticello, NY – Sullivan County is hosting a free first-time Homebuyer Workshop at the Government Center at 100 North Street in Monticello on April 23 from 5:30-7 pm.
This workshop will provide information for those that are interested in learning about programs and resources that would help potential buyers purchase their first home.
