Zero Down Loans

Zero down payment loans are designed to offer home ownership opportunities to borrowers with good credit but who lack the ability or desire to make a down payment on a home. It provides an option for those who wish to invest their savings in assets other than their home.

This type of financing is popular among both first time home buyers and experienced home buyers and you can use zero down payment loans for a purchase or a refinance. The fixed rate loan is also available for construction and home improvement of an owner occupied primary residence.

While you are not required to make a down payment, you must have 3% in the transaction. These funds are applied toward your closing costs and may come from your own funds, a gift from a relative, grant, or sale of assets you own.

100% Financing

The 100% financing loan is designed to offer home ownership opportunities to borrowers with good credit but who lack the ability or desire to make a down payment on a home. It provides an option for those who wish to invest their savings in assets other than their home.

This type of financing is popular among both first time home buyers and experienced home buyers and you can use 100% financing for a purchase or a refinance. The fixed rate loan is also available for construction and home improvement of an owner occupied primary residence.

While you are not required to make a down payment, you must have 3% in the transaction. These funds are applied toward your closing costs and may come from your own funds, a gift from a relative, grant, or sale of assets you own.

Reverse Mortgages

A reverse mortgage is a unique type of loan used by older Americans to convert the equity in their homes into cash. The money from a reverse mortgage can provide seniors with the financial security they need to fully enjoy their retirement years. The reverse mortgage has earned its name because the payment stream is "reversed." Instead of making monthly payments to a lender, as with a regular first mortgage or home equity loan, a lender makes payments to you. The money from a reverse mortgage can be used for anything from daily living expenses to home repairs and home modifications.


Reverse Mortgage Qualifications

To qualify for a reverse mortgage you must be at least 62 and own your own home. There are no income or medical requirements to qualify. You may be eligible for a reverse mortgage even if you still owe money on a first or second mortgage. In fact, many seniors get a reverse mortgage to pay off a first mortgage.

Debt Consolidation Loan Terms  
Many mortgage lenders give borrowers the option of using all or part of your new home loan for debt consolidation. If you prefer, you can choose to use some of the money to build an addition onto your home or make other home improvements. This money can also be received as cash for personal use. Most programs that are offered have terms anywhere from 5 to 30 years. The minimum loan amount that is offered in most circumstances is $15,000.  A debt consolidation loan from Citizens First Mortgage can help to reduce your monthly payments. Our mortgage brokers can help you with your debt consolidation loan needs. Contact Citizens First Mortgage today to get started on your debt consolidation home loan

First Time Buyer

What is a First Time Buyer Loan?  
Many people dream of owning a home but the home loan process can be confusing for many first time home buyers. Mortgage lenders offer first time buyers with many home loan options and assist the buyer in finding the best home loan for them. First time home buyer programs can offer lower interest rates, low down payments, or reduced taxes.

FHA and VA Loans for First Time Buyers  

First time homebuyers often experience the most difficulty amounting a significant down payment and everyone should have the opportunity to buy a home. For this reason the Federal government has developed two loan programs to assist homebuyers that have a little or no down payment. These programs are called the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) and the Veteran's Administration (VA). These programs are not solely intended for first time home buyers; your home loan advisor will be able to determine if you qualify and if so which program is acceptable for your needs. FHA and VA loans can be especially advantageous when combined with a HFA or MCC first time homebuyer program.

Who is Eligible for a First Time Buyer Loan?

First time home buyer programs are designed to help borrowers who may not have enough money to pay the full cost of the down payment or the closing costs on a mortgage. These programs make obtaining a mortgage more cost effective. There are even programs specifically for residents of each state. First time home buyer programs are available to those who have not owned a home for the past three years.

Community Home Buyer Programs  
Community homebuyer programs reduce the down payment the borrower must pay to 3%, which must be the borrower's own funds. The closing costs can be gift funds, a grant, or seller assistance up to 3% of sale price. This type of home loan requires the home buyer to take a class on home ownership in their state. Upon completion of the class, the homebuyer will receive a certificate that reduces the cash requirement and expands the qualification ratios. Community homebuyer programs have been making it possible for many people to have the opportunity to buy a home.
What is Escrow?  
Escrow is a deposit of funds, a deed or other instrument by one party for the delivery to another party upon completion of an event. In simpler terms, escrow is where the transaction changes hands and prevents the seller from not receiving the money from the sale and prevents the buyer from not receiving the home that was purchased. Escrow is important to both buyers and sellers during the mortgage process.

Mortgage Credit Certificates
A Mortgage Credit Certificate or MCC is a certificate awarded by your local government agency authorizing the home loan borrower to take certain federal income tax credits. The credits awarded help to free up funds and make the monthly home loan payments more affordable for the homeowner. First time home buyers are typically the candidates eligible for an MCC but in special cases that you may discuss with your home loan advisor this requirement may be waived. Income and purchase price requirements also vary state to state and should be covered in conversations with your home loan representative.
