We'll cover the rest!*
Dreaming of owning a home but worried about the down payment? With our 1% Down Conventional Loan Program, you can step into homeownership faster and keep more cash in your pocket. Use the savings for furniture, move-in costs, or other expenses!
Here’s how it works:
✅ You bring 1% down.
✅ We contribute 2% toward your down payment.
✅ You start building equity with a full 3% down conventional loan.
That means you can buy a $250,000 home with as little as $2,500 out of pocket for your down payment!
You bring just 1% – we cover the rest to get you to 3% down.
This program is designed to make homeownership more accessible for qualified buyers. Instead of saving for a traditional 3–5% down payment, you only need 1% of the purchase price. The lender provides the other 2% as a contribution, giving you the benefits of a 3% down conventional loan:
✅ Lower upfront cost
✅ Standard 30-year or 15-year fixed-rate options
✅ Private mortgage insurance (PMI) that may drop off once you reach 20% equity
✅ No hidden second loans or repayment required on the 2% contribution
Our 1% Down program is perfect for:
✅ First-time homebuyers ready to stop renting and start building equity
✅ Buyers with good credit who want a low down payment option
✅ Borrowers who meet income and loan limit requirements (varies by county)
If you have steady income and a credit score of 620+, you may qualify.
✅ Keep your savings intact – Buy a home without draining your bank account.
✅ Faster path to homeownership – Stop waiting years to save for 3–5% down.
✅ Competitive rates – Conventional financing with a lender-paid 2% boost.
✅ Trusted local mortgage experts – We guide you through every step.
Don’t let a big down payment stop you from buying your first home. With our 1% Down Conventional Loan, homeownership is closer than you think.
