Can I see Examples of a $300,000 FHA Loan With and Without Down Payment Assistance Side by Side?
Is $1500 Total Out of Pocket a Guaranteed Amount?
The $1500 Down Payment is a for sure with the CHDAP Program (If you qualify). The closing costs associated with a loan are
usually paid for by the Seller, but it is not a Guarantee that those will be paid. Which means that if a seller is not willing to pay for
All or Some of the Closing Costs, you will have to bring in more than 1/2%.
Is this 3% Down Payment Assistance a Loan?
The 3% Down Payment Assistance IS A LOAN. It has a rate as low as 3.25% depending on your credit. Wow! Thats less than
most of your credit cards.
Do I Need to Be A First Time Buyer?
Yes (Have Not Owned a Home in the Last 3yrs)
Do I need to buy specific homes or can you buy any home available for sale?
You do not have to buy specific homes. As long as the home is in California and it qualifies for FHA financing, you can buy it with
this program. WOW! That's a lot of homes?
Whats the catch?
There is no catch.
Do other banks and Lenders Have "Down Payment Assistance Programs"?
Yes...Other Banks and Lenders Do Offer this program.
If Most Banks Offer this Program WHY Didn't My Agent or Lender Tell Me About It?
Either they didn't know about it...or for whatever reason didn't offer it to you. It is real and it does exist.
That is a Major Red Flag. If a program like this exists, I would not want it kept a secret!
There are a couple of things to keep in Mind:
-Just because other companies offer the Down Payment Assistance Program, this does not mean that EVERY Loan Officer Knows
how to work with these programs.
-This program can take 60-90 Days to Close if your Loan Officer Doesn't have experience with this program.
-Do you really want someone without experience with Down Payment Assistance Programs to use your transaction as a learning
experience?
No Way!
