$10,000 FREE Down Payment!

The city of Austin is offering $10,000 to help first time homebuyers buy a home.

The Down Payment Assistance Program (DPA) provides qualified, first-time homebuyers, with a zero interest loan to assist with purchasing a home located within the Austin City Limits. DPA funds cover the down payment and eligible closing costs and pre-paid expenses associated with buying a home.

The borrower may receive up to $10,000 in a deferred, forgivable, 0% interest loan for 10 years. Or, you may receive $1,000 additional for borrowers in a Mortgage Credit Certificate Program, and up to $4,999 for people with disabilities. The loan is forgiven if the borrower remains in the home ten (10) years without transferring title. Otherwise the loan is due and payable if the borrower sells, leases, transfers title, refinances, gets a home equity loan, or pays off the first lien within ten (10) years.

It's pretty straight forward!  Would you like more information?  Ask us!
