About
Buying a home in the Houston area, whether in the city, suburbs, or surrounding communities like Pearland, Alvin, Manvel, or Friendswood, can feel financially out of reach for many first-time buyers. But here's the truth: you may not need 20% down to buy a home. This comprehensive program is designed to guide first-time homebuyers through the often-overwhelming process of purchasing a home in the Greater Houston area. You'll discover how down payment assistance (DPA) programs can make homeownership more achievable than you think. Throughout this program, you'll learn about various DPA options available in Texas, including grants, forgivable second liens, and low-interest loans. We'll explore popular programs like TSAHC, the City of Houston Homebuyer Assistance Program, Harris County DPA, and the SETH 5 Star Program, each offering unique benefits for eligible buyers. You'll also get step-by-step guidance on navigating the homebuying process, from reviewing eligibility requirements to completing homebuyer education courses like Fannie Mae's free HomeView® program. Learn how to get pre-approved with DPA-approved lenders and work effectively with real estate professionals who understand these programs. Beyond just securing assistance, this program emphasizes the long-term benefits of homeownership, including building equity, creating stability, and establishing generational wealth for your family's future. By the end of this program, you'll have the knowledge and confidence to take your first steps toward owning a home in the Houston metroplex.
