Down Payment Assistance


Unlock homeownership with Down Payment Assistance grants

Saving for a down payment is one of the biggest challenges facing homebuyers today - especially first-time buyers. The good news? Thousands of down payment assistance grants are available nationwide to help reduce upfront costs and make homeownership more affordable - sometimes providing up to $10,000 in down payment assistance. Whether you’re just starting your home search or getting close to making an offer, these programs could help you get the keys to your new home sooner than you think.

Benefits of Down Payment Assistance

  • Reduced Upfront Costs: Lower your initial investment, making homeownership more accessible with as much as $10,000 in down payment assistance.
  • Increased Purchasing Power: Afford a home that better suits your needs.
  • Financial Flexibility: Preserve savings for emergencies or home improvements.
  • Homeownership Opportunities: Enter the housing market sooner than expected.
 

Down payment assistance programs provide eligible homebuyers with funds to cover down payments and sometimes closing costs. Assistance can come in various forms, including:

  • Grants: Money that doesn't need to be repaid.
  • Forgivable Loans: Loans that are forgiven if you meet certain criteria, such as living in the home for a set number of years.
  • Deferred Payment Loans: Loans that don't require repayment until you sell, refinance or pay off your mortgage.
Our experienced team of mortgage consultants can help you identify which down payment assistance program might be right for your family. We can even set the wheels in motion for your assistance application. 

Down payment assistance helps first-time homebuyers and low- to moderate-income buyers achieve homeownership. Eligibility depends on factors such as first-time homebuyer status, income, credit score and the location of the property.

Many first-time homebuyer grants in Florida can be combined with popular loan programs to make homeownership more affordable, especially for buyers with limited savings or moderate incomes. 

With thousands of programs available nationwide, rely on the mortgage experts at Capital City Home Loans to help you find the down payment assistance option that best fits your needs.
