New Jersey First Time Home Buyer Mortgage rates have changed.  The new rates are more familiar to us that have been in the NJ mortgage market for a while. First-Time Buyer rates were uncharacteristically much higher for the last several months, but have come down to where they actually make sense again for buyers. 

Important Note: A first-time buyer is considered someone who hasn't owned a home in the last three years.  So if that is you, then you can take advantage of this grant program. Grants are available from 2-4% of the purchase price, so for a $200,000 home your grant will be from $4,000 - $8,000, depending on which option you choose.

These first-time buyer loans can be up to 100% financing, and are 30-year fixed loans. These loans have income limitations, but have very high limits considering.
