First Time Home Buyer Programs


There are still many great First Time Home Buyer Programs available today, many with zero down payment.

Most programs require that the borrower has decent credit, and must have a stable job with documentable income.

Here is a breakdown of things you need to be prepared for to qualify


Income and Job History

You must have stable income that can be documented. This means 2 years in the same line of work with no significant unexplainable gaps. If you are a W2 employee of a company, you will need to supply 2 years of W2s as well as 30 days’ worth of paystubs. If you receive commission income or bonuses, the underwriter will take a 2-year average of those amounts for qualifying.

Self-employed individuals will have to supply 2 years of tax returns, and the underwriter will use a 2-year average of bottom-line income (after expenses) to qualify you.

We can help you determine if you have enough income to qualify and how much home you can afford.

Assets

Even if you are applying for a First Time Home Buyer Program that requires no down payment, you will need to have money for closing costs; unless, you are working with a seller who has agreed to pay your closing costs. You may also be required to have a month or two worth of mortgage payments for a reserve account.

Credit

Generally speaking, your credit score must be above 620 for most programs, and you must have a clean credit history for the past 12 months. If your score is below 620, we may still be able to help you as we do have loan programs that allow a lower credit score. We can also help you by providing you tips on how to improve your score. First Time Home Buyer Programs require that you are at least 2 years out of bankruptcy if you have filed, and 3 years past a foreclosure in order to qualify.

Common First Time Home Buyer Programs

Some of the more common First Time Home Buyer Programs are: FHA (3.5% down payment), VA (0% down payment), and USDA (0% down payment).
