It's a first-time homebuyer's market, an article from The Denver Post, reports that federal help and willing sellers is helping to speed the process for first-time homebuyers.  A U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development program allows first-time buyers to make a down payment of only $100 on HUD-designated properties.  Last year, a one-time tax credit was made available to first-time homebuyers.  The interest-free loan can be paid back over 15 years or when the home is sold.  Individuals making $75,000 or less can qualify for the full $7,500 credit.  Couples need to have a combined income of less than $150,000 to get the full amount.  Some homebuyers are also considering a loan from the Colorado Housing and Finance Authority.  CHFA requires that the person selling the home have owned the property for at least 90 days.
