FHA Down Payment Assistance Programs
Down Payment Assistance Programs ............................................................................... |
| Down Payment Assistance Programs (DAPS) are loan programs designed to assist first-time home buyers with the required down payment and closing costs required by the FHA loan program.
These types of down payment assistance programs are typically broken into two types of loan programs. These are the 501 (c) (3) Non-Profit organizations or county, city, state backed down payment assistance programs.
The 501 (c) (3) non-profit down payment assistance programs will typically require the assistance of the home seller in order for the buyer to take advantage of the program. Following is a list of just some of the available down payment assistance programs offered by non-profit organizations.
- Nehemiah - Grants up to 3% towards down payment.
- HART - Grants up to $15,000 towards down payment and closing costs.
- Neighborhood Gold - Grants up to 20%, includes Mortgage Payment Protection
The above programs typically do not have a repayment schedule nor is there a second mortgage required. All of these types of down payment assistance programs use a FHA loan.
