Down Payment Assistance: How to Get Help Buying a House

If you want to become a homeowner, but you don’t have enough cash for a down payment, a state or local down payment assistance program might be able to help.

Most states and many counties and cities offer grants and no-interest loans to help home buyers pay for down payments and closing costs.

The help comes through state housing finance agencies as well as cities, counties, nonprofits and even some employers. Often the programs are offered in combination with mortgages geared to first-time home buyers.
