Down Payment Assistance Information - Part II
Most states have various program that help with down payment assistance to buy a home. The best place to start looking at is usually with your local city and/or county office. You can obtain this contact information quite easily by looking your local phone books or by simply doing a Google search online. If down payment assistance can not be found in your area or there are simply no down payment assistance programs available, there are quite a few mortgage programs that allow for a home purchase with zero money down. Below is a list of states and some places that you may want to use to begin your search for some down payment assistance when you are considering buying a home.

$25,000 (315) 536-8707 There are certain areas in NY where lenders are able to offer better interest rates and programs than those available everywhere else.
There are many government or other agency sponsored mortgage programs specifically targeted to, and only available in these areas.
In New York City there is the "HomeFirst Down Payment Assistance Program". It gives qualified buyers up to 6% of a home's purchase price toward the down payment or closing costs. This can be on a 1-4 family home, a condominium, or a cooperative in one of the 5 boroughs of New York City.

Languages: English Most programs administrators place a lien on the home whose owner received downpayment assistance. The amount of the lien is reduced every year and eventually eliminated after a certain number of years. If a home
owner sells his property or refinance to cash out equity while there is still a lien on the property, he will need to return part of the assistance. Such measure is in place to prevent assistance recipients taking advantage of the assistance programs by "flipping", or quickly buy and sell, properties. These type of programs are in place for first time home buyers who need assistance with down payment and/or closing costs. These programs also help the economy by allowing more homes to be sold because more buyers are now available to
purchase homes. North Carolina Down Payment Assistance Programs
