Homeownership Could Be in Reach with Down Payment Assistance Programs

There are several misconceptions about down payment assistance programs. For starters, many people believe there’s only assistance available for first-time homebuyers. While first-time buyers have many options to explore, repeat buyers have some, too. According to the latest Homeownership Program Index from downpaymentresource.com, “It is a common misconception that homebuyer assistance is only available to first-time homebuyers, however, 38% of homebuyer assistance programs in Q1 2022 did not have a first-time homebuyer requirement.”

That means repeat buyers could qualify for over one-third of the assistance programs available. And if you’re a repeat buyer, you may still be able to take advantage of some first-time homebuyer programs, depending on your personal situation. That means no matter...

You may be reading headlines and hearing talk about a potential housing bubble or a crash, but it’s important to understand that the data and expert opinions tell a different story.

>>1. Low Housing Inventory Is Causing Home Prices To Rise

Inventory is nothing like the last time. Prices are rising because there’s a healthy demand for homeownership at the same time there’s a limited supply of homes for sale. Odeta Kushi, Deputy Chief...

Things To Avoid After Applying for a Home Loan

Here are a few things you may not realize you need to avoid after applying for your home loan.

>>Don’t Deposit Large Sums of Cash
Lenders need to source your money, and cash isn’t easily traceable.

>>Don’t Make Any Large Purchases
It’s not just home-related purchases that could disqualify you from your loan. Any large purchases can be red flags for lenders.

>>Don’t Co-Sign Loans for Anyone
When you co-sign for a loan, you’re making yourself accountable for that loan’s success and repayment. With that obligation comes higher debt-to-income ratios as well.

>>Don’t Switch Bank Accounts
Lenders need to source and track your assets.

>>Don’t Apply for New Credit
When you have your credit report run by organizations in multiple financial channels (mortgage, credit card, auto, etc.), it will have an impact on...
