Down Payment Assistance
We're bridging the gap between your savings for home purchases, and making that purchase a reality. Generally, you are required to have a down payment of at least 20% of the purchase price to avoid Private Mortgage Insurance. We understand that it can be difficult to save this amount of funds.
A Down Payment Assistance Loan allows you to put down 10% of the purchase price, and we will loan you the remaining 10%. With this loan, you'll avoid PMI, and still be able to purchase your home with a lower down payment.
