Achieve Homeownership with $1,000 Down and Generous Assistance

Embarking on the journey to homeownership has never been more accessible. With our groundbreaking program, you can:

  • Secure your new home with as little as $1,000 cash required at closing*
  • Benefit from up to $25,000 in down payment assistance*
  • Enjoy below-market fixed interest rates*

Minimal Cash to Close

One of the most significant barriers to purchasing a home is the hefty down payment. Our program addresses this by allowing you to close on your new home with as little as $1,000 in cash. This reduction in upfront costs makes homeownership more attainable than ever before.

Substantial Down Payment Assistance

In addition to the minimal cash requirement, eligible participants can receive up to $25,000 in down payment assistance. This substantial support can significantly reduce the financial burden associated with purchasing a home, enabling you to invest in your future with confidence.

Competitive Fixed Interest Rates

Our program offers below-market fixed interest rates, ensuring that your monthly mortgage payments remain stable and affordable over time. This predictability allows for better financial planning and peace of mind as you settle into your new home.

To take advantage of this opportunity, consider the following program specifics:

  • Interest rates are set by the Colorado Housing and Finance Authority (CHFA).
