Page 2

The program will enable you to pay at least $1,000 of your own money and then shoulder a maximum amount of up to $8,000 which is not payable until 30 years after you purchased your house. In addition, this Downpayment Assistance Program can also be used in conjunction with the FirstHome Mortgage Program that is also offered by the North Carolina HFA.

If you wish to considered eligible to apply for the Downpayment Assistance Program, you should be able to satisfy the following eligibility requirements which states that you should be:

1) A first time home buyer or a veteran who is planning to acquire a home in a targeted area

2) A person who has not owned a home or occupied it as his/her primary residence for the last three years

3) A person whose annual income does not exceed the limits that are set by the North Carolina Housing Finance Agency

4) A person who wishes to acquire a property whose selling point does not exceed the limits that are set by the North Carolina Housing Finance Agency

5) A citizen and a legal resident of the United States of America

6) A person who is planning to occupy the purchased home within 60 days before closing.

The Downpayment Assistance Program is naturally not due until after 30 years of procurement, but payment will have to made earlier if the borrower opts to sell, transfer, or refinance his North Carolina HFA-financed property.
