We believe that the dream of homeownership should be within reach for everyone. One of the biggest barriers to buying a home can be saving for the down payment, but our down payment assistance programs are designed to help bridge that gap. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer or need a little extra help, we have solutions that can make your path to homeownership smoother and more affordable.
Down payment assistance (DPA) programs provide financial support to homebuyers who may struggle to come up with the required down payment for a home purchase. These programs can come in the form of grants, low- or no-interest loans, and tax credits. They are often provided by government agencies, non-profit organizations, or other institutions dedicated to promoting homeownership.
Grants: Non-repayable funds that can be used towards your down payment or closing costs. These grants do not require repayment, making them an excellent option for qualified buyers.
Second Mortgage Loans: Low-interest or no-interest loans that must be repaid over time, usually after you move, sell, or refinance your home. These loans can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket expenses at the time of purchase.
Deferred Payment Loans: Loans that require no payment until you sell, refinance, or pay off your first mortgage. This option allows you to delay repayment and focus on building equity in your new home.
Forgivable Loans: Loans that are forgiven over a specific period, typically if you stay in your home for a certain number of years. If you meet the requirements, you won’t have to repay the loan.
Employer-Assisted Housing (EAH) Programs: Some employers offer down payment assistance as a benefit to their employees, helping them purchase a home near their workplace.
Eligibility for down payment assistance programs varies depending on the specific program and location. However, common qualifying factors include:
First-Time Homebuyers: Many programs are specifically designed for first-time buyers who meet certain income and purchase price limits.
Income Limits: Some programs have income restrictions to ensure they are helping those who need it most. Income limits vary by location and household size.
Property Type: Typically, the property must be your primary residence, and some programs may have restrictions on the type of home (e.g., single-family homes, condos).
Credit Requirements: While some programs are flexible, others may have minimum credit score requirements to qualify.
