Down Payment Assistance
HDF offers first time homebuyers a wide variety of downpayment and closing cost assistance options, in addition to our free counseling and education services. These affordable secondary financing programs are designed to prepare prospective buyers to become successful owners.
Many of HDF’s loan products can be layered, allowing eligible purchasers to access a financing package tailored to their needs and side-by-side with a conventional first mortgage from a bank. Certain restrictions may apply depending on the program.
