Down Payment Assistance

Federal HOME funds can be used by states to offer down payment assistance for first time homebuyers. Also, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac set the guidelines for down payment assistance offered by banks.

Your State Finance Agency or Housing Authority will have information about local Down Payment Assistance Programs. You can find your local Housing Authority here: https://affordablehousingonline.com/housing-authority.
