For you home buyers, there are options galore that require little to no money (3.5%-0% down)! These programs are known as government sponsored programs because they are backed by the federal government so that lenders like me can lend with a lower down payment from the buyer, and know that are funds are secured if the borrower defaults. These programs include: FHA loans, VA loans, USDA loans, and CHFA loans and are great options for those who may not have a lot of funds to put down on a new home purchase or those who need a different option for a refinance.
