These special mortgage programs can help take some stress out of homebuying, so you can focus on getting home. And don’t worry, our mortgage lending partners will work with you to find the best programs and loan options for you. Let’s get started.

First-Time Homebuyer Program

The First-Time Home Buyer Program can help make buying your home more affordable. You may qualify if you’ve never owned a home or haven’t owned one in three years or more.

  • Qualified members can tap into up to a specific subsidy, and for 2023 it is $12,500.
  • Members must contribute $1,000 of their own funds towards the down payment and/or closing costs.
  • At the time of application and at closing, your household must have incomes at or below 80 percent of the area median income.
  • Homebuyers must complete the credit union’s prescribed homebuyer counseling, debt management planning, and default prevention program.

Keep in mind, the First-Time Home Buyer Program funds can run out quickly, so we recommend members apply for the program as early in the year as possible to secure them. 

The funds can only be used with the Fixed-Rate Mortgage and the Adjustable-Rate Mortgage, not with the First-Time Home Buyer mortgage. 

If you have questions or want to find out more about the program, contact our Experience Center.

  • Members must contribute $1,000 of their own funds towards the down payment and/or closing costs.
  • At the time of application and at closing, your household must have incomes at or below 80 percent of the area median income.
  • Homebuyers must complete the credit union’s prescribed homebuyer counseling, debt management planning, and default prevention program. 
  • The maximum subsidy amount is $15,000. This amount may change annually.
