A simple one-step process: the application is streamlined for the borrower, using the 1003 they have already completed!

•DPA is a grant equal to 2% of the purchase price 
• May be combined with up to 6% seller concession for closing costs 
• No resale or borrower repayment restrictions 
• Minimum qualifying credit score: 580 
• Can be used with the FHA 203(b) program or any of our FHA renovation programs, as well as the One-Time Close program 
*Not available in Hawaii and Washington 

ELIGIBLE BORROWERS (Any one of the following)

• Total borrower’s income is equal to or less than 140% of the median area income
