The CSHLP offers a below market rate, conventional first mortgage loan to first-time homebuyers purchasing select real estate owned (REO) properties in specific California communities.
How The Program Works
The CSHLP provides a special, reduced interest rate on a 30-Year Fixed Mortgage on certain REO properties that are located in selected counties and ZIP codes in California. This first loan may also be combined with the California Homebuyer's Downpayment Assistance Program (CHDAP) for down payment and closing cost assistance, to make owning your first home more affordable.
