Overview

Looking for a low down payment option?

Saving for a down payment and closing costs can be a major hurdle for some when it comes to buying a home. Our First-Time Home Buyer loan helps you reach that goal faster by requiring as little as 3% down, while also allowing the seller to pay towards your closing costs.

Features

Learn about First-Time Home Buyer Mortgages

  • As little as 3% down (ideal for first-time homebuyers)
  • Down payment may be a gift from relatives (excellent credit required)
  • Fixed interest rate providing set monthly payments (principal & interest) for a 30 year term
  • No penalty for paying your loan off early
  • For primary residences (Single Family Home)

Things to Consider

  • A mortgage with less than 20% down will require Private Mortgage Insurance (PMI), which could mean a higher monthly payment.
  • Putting less money down would increase your loan-to-value ratio and potentially could mean a higher interest rate.
  • Credit Smart / Homeownership education online course required (course can be completed at no cost to you and comes with certificate of completion)
