Need Help with A Downpayment? You MUST Read This!

March 31, 2023

Need Help with A Downpayment? You MUST Read This!

The best First Time Buyer Program we've seen in a decade!

 

Funds are limited for this program, so don't sleep on it! 

 

Now you can get up to 20% toward a down payment through the California Dream for All program. Some highlights: 

  • Can have income up to $300k in San Francisco and San Mateo Counties - $283,000 in Alameda and Contra Costa 
  • No interest payments on the down payment from CalHFA - you pay them back when you sell along with a % equity share. 
  • Can help you avoid PMI (mortgage insurance) and buy a home with very few $$ out of your pocket. 
  • Must be a first time home buyer (meaning cannot have owned a home in the past 3 years)

***See notes below

 

How do I get this fabulous loan?

 

You can't go directly to CalHFA; you'll need an approved lender. Fortunately, we have one for you! 

Jeff Parrott with Guaranteed Rate has been our First Time Home Buyer specialist for more than 15 years. He's hands down the best in the Bay when it comes to navigating and explaining these programs. Contact Jeff and tell him that we sent you. 😃 

Did we mention not to wait? Funds are limited so take the first step toward your California Dream!
