0.5% Down Payment in Sonoma County

 

The CHF Access Program provides a 3% loan to be coupled with an FHA 96.5% loan to be used for buying an owner occupied loan in Sonoma County.  The 0.5% low down payment from the buyer can come from a family gift, a 401k loan or from a downpayment assistance program like the City of Santa Rosa’s ADDI program.  There is an income limit of $96,240 of qualifying income for Sonoma County.  The terms of the second loan are 15 years fully amortizing at 8.25% rate.  On a $300,000 home purchase, the minimum down would be $1,500!  Total payment would be $2,142 including PITIMI&2ndP&I.

Here’s the sizzle and rub.
