Up to $15,000 Available in Down payment Assistance Available for Jacksonville FL First Time Homebuyers!

 

The Headstart to Homeownership or H2H program is finally funded again for Jacksonville FL residents! I am so excited about this because they have been out of funds for over 6 months now.

 

They provide much needed downpayment and closing cost assistance to eligible Jacksonville FL residents in amounts of $10,000, $12,500 or $15,000 depending upon family size and income.

 

Here are some of the additional guidelines......

 

 

•·          DPA is based on TOTAL household income (see guidelines below).

•·          Sales price limit - $271,050.00.

•·          You must sign up for a  8-hour training through one of their approved partners.

•·          A full home inspection must be completed and requested by the city on the subject property and that any deficiencies noted will need to be repaired.

Leesa, yes it is! The one thing I forgot to mention is that there are only about 25 slots available for these funds. I sure hope my buyers come on and get it.
