Loans Can Be Fun
We have many clients that can afford the monthly payment for a home, but lack a down payment. There are options that can help! It is best to try to get as much money saved up so you have more options and can present a stronger offer to a seller. We usually suggest trying to get at least $4000 saved up if possible. There are situations where the seller may agree to help with some of your loan costs, but if the market is competitive, a seller may become less willing to help. We have loan programs that can help with your down payment and a portion of your closing costs. This loan will not usually help with ALL of your closing costs so that is why we suggest you save some money for competitive markets. These down payment assistance programs are one of the more expensive loan programs and we like to explain that up-front. If you can come up with a down payment, you should. If you cannot, our down payment assistance programs are a great option. In certain situations, a person may qualify for a grant. Grants typically require a borrower to make less than a certain amount and most people do not fit the criteria. For those who do qualify for a grant, there are rules specific to each grant and we can help you research those. Please reach out and we will determine what options are best for you.
