Questions & answers
Before you choose the loan
What assistance programs are currently available for my situation?
Availability must be checked when you apply. Programs can have funding, income, purchase-price, credit, occupancy and education conditions. A web page about assistance is not a reservation of funds or an eligibility determination.
Does assistance have to be repaid?
Some assistance has repayment or forgiveness conditions. Review whether it is a grant, deferred loan or another structure, and what happens when you sell, refinance, move or pay off the first mortgage.
Can I combine assistance with FHA, VA, or conventional financing?
Only combinations permitted by both the assistance program and first-mortgage lender can be used. Ask for an integrated estimate that shows the first loan, assistance obligations and complete cash to close.
