Down-Payment Assistance Program – Texas

On June 26, 2009, in Tips And Advice, by Leesa Sandoval

This program allows a first time home buyer in Texas to monetize the $8000 tax credit and apply it to their down-payment and closing costs.

Funds are available on a first come, first served basis.  Currently only $5 Million has been allocated for this program.

Requirements:

  • No one on the loan may have owned a home within the last 3 years
  • Home must be new or resale and used as a principal residence
  • Allows for financing of single family detached homes, town homes, and condos
  • Purchase must occur between 01/01/09 and 12/01/09
  • Minimum credit score of 620 required on all borrowers
  • Income limits: $75,000.00 for a single  taxpayer and $150,000.00 for married taxpayers
  • Home buyer class is required

This is a great program for those who are a bit short on cash to close.  There’s nothing worse than finding the home you wish to buy and draining all of your savings to make the purchase a reality.
