It's True! Programs DO Exist for
Little or NO Money Down Financing
I've written in the past about dispelling rumors that persist about Down Payment Requirements needed to buy a home. Frustratingly, I continue to hear from potential Home Buyers and others that believe the rumors to be true.
Let me state the facts here: Currently, home loans are available for Home Buyers that DON'T have a 20% Down Payment saved towards a home purchase.
Low/No Down Payment Options that exist today:
- The longstanding FHA financing option is still available. It remains available to those Buyers with as little as a 3.5% Down Payment
- Conventional Loans are available with 3% Down Payment * with Fannie Mae's HomeReady Loan
Loan Options exist today with little or NO Money Down. They are:
- A. VA: 100% Financing for Qualified Military Veterans
- B. USDA-RD: 100% Financing for Certain Qualified Rural properties/locations
- C. FHA: $100 Down Payment for Qualified HUD-owned properties
- D. IHDA *: 100% Financing. Income Limits Apply. Funding is limited. Restrictions are also in place and apply. (* Illinois Housing Development Authority. Can be used for purchase of IL properties only.)
Note: While FHA and Conventional Loan Programs require 3.5% Down (FHA) and 3 - 5% Down (Conventional), these Down Payment Funds can be GIFTED by relatives (within certain guidelines as to the Donor's relationship to the Borrower(s).
Also: A Co-Signer on a Mortgage can contribute ALL of the required Down Payment Funds needed ... even if they don't plan on living in the financed/purchased property.
