Down Payment Assistance Structure
This assistance is structured as a second loan with 3, 7, or 10 year terms with principal deferred and no accrued interest. This is not a bond loan.
Forgiveness periods:
3 Year Term
Forgiven in full on the maturity date of 3 years. This is available for government loans only (VA and FHA).
7 Year Term
Repayment obligation for the 7 year option is “forgiven” in equal monthly increments after year 2 and will be 100% forgiven at maturity of the note. This is available for both government and conventional loans.
10 Year Term
Repayment obligation for the 10 year option is “forgiven” in equal monthly increments after year 5 and will be 100% forgiven at maturity of the note. This is available conventional loans only.
