Down Payment Assistance


It’s surprising but true: nearly 80% of first-time buyers qualify for down payment assistance, but only a fraction use it. That’s a missed opportunity because every dollar counts, especially in the East Bay market.


Stretch Your Down Payment Dollars

There are numerous programs to help first-time buyers, from loans requiring as little as 3% down to 0% down for Veterans. Grants and down payment assistance are also available to help ease the upfront costs. These programs could help you land your East Bay home sooner than you think!


Don’t Let Big Headlines Fool You

You may have seen reports about the rise in average down payments, but remember, those numbers don’t apply to everyone. Current homeowners leveraging equity are driving those figures up. As a first-time buyer, you still have plenty of opportunities to manage your down payment.


Take Action Today

The key to success? Speak with a trusted lender. The right lender can guide you through the process and ensure you’re taking advantage of all available assistance. It’s time to make your East Bay homeownership dreams come true!
