Santa Cruz loan program for low income first time buyers.

Good News for some… The City of Santa Cruz has a first time homebuyer funding called (“HOME” funds) It’s a program designed to help low income first time buyers.  And its available in the form of a “Silent Second” mortgage.  Silent second mortgage requires no monthly payment of principal until one of several events occur at a point in the future. 

This Silent Second is designed to fill the gap that the buyer will qualify for from a lender and the amount of the purchase.  It acts as a down payment. It’s based on the property, the price, location, buyers income and it even pays the closing costs.  Application and information  can be obtained from The City of Santa Cruz Housing Programs Corrdinator.

Many cities offer similar programs.  Look into it, well worth the effort.

Programs, funds, availabilty, restrictions, and conditions change. Up to date information is best obtained by the Housing Progam.

Great that Santa Cruz has this program. In our days of city, county and state deficits, it's good to see these programs remain.

We have some great first time loan programs here too. I was able to get a single Mom into a home that she never thought she would own. That's when real estate is particularly rewarding.

What a great program for first time homebuyers to know.  Hopefully they'll take advantage of this!
