MyHome Assistance Program
Myhome Assistance Program is a 3% deferred junior loan that can be used for down payment assistance or closing cost. This one is only for first time home buyers (First time home buyer is defined as anyone who has not purchased a home in the last 3 years). This loan is considered a silent second and you don't pay it back until you sell the home or refinance.
Zero Intrest Program ( ZIP)
The ZIP loan is a deferred-payment junior loan of 3% - 4.5% that you can used to cover all your closing cost. Just like the loan above it is a silent second and you do not pay it back until you sell or refinance.
Mortgage Credit Certificate (MCC)
An MCC enables a first time home buyer to take a direct dollar-for-dollar tax credit on their federal income tax return, based on a portion of their interest paid annually (currently this is 20%). This has the potential to save you thousands of dollars over the life of the mortgage loans. This credit can be used in combination with MyHome and Zip
Extra Credit Teacher Home Purchase Program (ECTP)
