Assistance Programs For Florida Real Estate Purchases

Assistance programs for Florida real estate purchases and Internet resources – by Sonny Solomon at The Keyes Company

July 3, 2015 //  by Sonny Solomon

There are an abundance of home buyer assistance programs offered. There is an assumption that only first time buyers qualify, but that is certainly not true for all of the programs. If you are contemplating a property purchase, the following is what you should know about assistance programs for Florida real estate purchases.

Types of Programs Possible

Some assistance programs for Florida real estate purchases are nationwide while others are limited to a geographic location. Qualification criteria are specific to each program, so home buyers may be able to choose from several programs. Criteria can include level of income, household size, type of property, home location, or property condition. Some evaluate special factors such as veteran status, disabilities, ethnicity, ownership of the property by certain entities, or connection to specific groups.

How Assistance is Provided

Given that all assistance programs for Florida real estate purchases are unique, they also provide different methods of help for buyers. Some programs will issue grants towards closing charges and down payments. In certain cases, the funds do not need to be paid back if specific criteria is met. Some offer discounted rates or more flexible underwriting standards. For homes requiring renovation, rehab programs are also available.

How Assistance Programs For Florida Real Estate Purchases Affect Home Buyers

Some people can afford a property based on credit and income, but do not have enough savings for the up-front costs. These folks then hold off on purchasing to gather sufficient funds. In the meantime, interest rates and/or market values could surge, making it even more challenging to buy. Programs that include down payment assistance enable people to act sooner and benefit from todays low interest rates.

Finding Assistance Programs For Florida Real Estate Purchases

All assistance programs for Florida real estate purchases are intended to allow more people to purchase homes. Home sales often affect the economy, so such programs may help stimulate the economy. Surprisingly, it can be hard to learn about some of these programs. To search for programs, go to DownPaymentResource.com. This website lets you enter your basic information and receive a list of possible programs. You can subsequently touch base with your mortgage consultant for more specific information. Remember that many are only provided by designated companies.
