MN DOWN PAYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS


There are many first time home buyer and down payment assistance loans to choose from. We really like the MHFA Start Up and Step Up down payment assistance programs in MN for First Time Home Buyers because it is available though out the entire state of Minnesota, and the money never runs out.

 

Have at least $1,000?  Have OK Credit? Than YOU can probably be a homeowner.

TWO MINNESOTA DOWN PAYMENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS

 

START UP Program

 

The Start Up assistance program is for people who have NOT owned a home in the last three years.

 

STEP UP Program

 

The Step Up program is for people who currently do, or may have owned a home previously.

 

Both of these program assist with up to $10,000 is down payment assistance to those who qualify.  Most people get much less. Typically up to just $8,000.

 

MORTGAGE CREDIT CERTIFICATES

 

By adding a Mortgage Credit Certificate option, first time home buyers can potentially save up to an addition $2,000 on their taxes.

  • Attend Home Buyer Education Class or take the online class
  • Meet program family income limits
  • Buy an affordable home
  • Provide previous three years tax returns
  • Meet FHA, VA, USDA, or Fannie Mae / Freddie Mac underlying loan program guidelines

The rules and guidelines for first time home buyer and down payment assistance programs in MN are a bit overwhelming for most potential new home owners.
