    Down Payment Assistance Programs [For Everyone]

    The number one challenge preventing potential home buyers from entering the housing market is down payment. Recent statistics show that many renters believe they need a 20% down payment to buy a home, and that down payment assistance (DPA) programs are only for first-time homebuyers or low-income buyers. None of this is true. Almost every American can currently qualify to buy a home with no money down through a $0 down program or DPA program.

    The key to using a DPA is to first know what is available to you which depends on your unique home-buying situation. It is not easy to figure out your options on your own. It takes a qualified local lender who knows ALL your options to get what’s best for you.

    There are an estimated 2,400+ programs—some are nationally administered, some are state administered and some are administered by local jurisdictions. Many people are completely unaware that they could buy a home now with one of these programs.

    Click here to get matched with a local lender who knows your local programs.

    The free service we provide will help you research popular local DPA programs that fit your specific home-buying needs. The process is not one size fits all. We’ll match you to the right local lender who will help identify the program that works best for you and who can close your home loan with little or no money down.

    DPA by Loan Programs

    Your home buying goals and needs are unique–so too are the features of the many programs that exist. You can use FHA, Conventional, VA or USDA financing to accomplish $0 down, reduced-down, reduced-MI, no-MI, broader qualifying, or some other home buying benefit. A common fallacy is that these programs are for first time home-buyers or for low-income borrowers. That is not true at all. While some programs are designed specifically for economic re-development in certain cities, the vast majority of programs are available for any primary home purchase and allow for any loan type.

    IMPORTANT MORTGAGE DISCLOSURES:

    When inquiring about a mortgage on this site, this is not a mortgage application. Upon the completion of your inquiry, we will work hard to match you with a lender who may assist you with a mortgage application and provide mortgage product eligibility requirements for your individual situation.

    Any mortgage product that a lender may offer you will carry fees or costs including closing costs, origination points, and/or refinancing fees. In many instances, fees or costs can amount to several thousand dollars and can be due upon the origination of the mortgage credit product.

    When applying for a mortgage credit product, lenders will commonly require you to provide a valid social security number and submit to a credit check . Consumers who do not have the minimum acceptable credit required by the lender are unlikely to be approved for mortgage refinancing.

    Minimum credit ratings may vary according to lender and mortgage product. In the event that you do not qualify for a credit rating based on the required minimum credit rating, a lender may or may not introduce you to a credit counseling service or credit improvement company who may or may not be able to assist you with improving your credit for a fee.
